Yep, absolutely. I tried everything, had an MRI done, and the only thing that reduced symptoms was starting regular high intensity workouts (Olympic lifts and such). A year later and I'm nearly symptom free.
- dazc 11y agoI started lifting weights a year ago for no other reason than for keeping in shape. My tinnitus (I'm a long time sufferer) has also become less severe over the same period. Until now I had not connected the two - mainly because I've made some other lifestyle changes such as improving my diet and avoiding stressful situations. So it could be coincidental, but an interesting idea nonetheless.
- DanBC 11y agoWhen's the last time you had your blood pressure checked?
- dazc 11y agoMany years ago. I suspect it's been on the high side for a long time though.
- DanBC 11y agoA blood pressure check takes a few minutes. High blood pressure can cause tinitus, although it's one of the less common causes: http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Tinnitus/Pages/Causes.aspx http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Tinnitus/Pages/Causes.aspx
- dazc 11y agoIt may take a few minutes but getting a doctor's appointment takes a much longer - not to mention a lot of determination. Thanks for the link though, I may just have a try at getting an appointment again before the year is out.
