I would think most health food stores would have CBD, or he could go to the Sanctuary ATC store at 568 Tenney Mountain Highway in Plymouth next time he goes to Market Basket.

i know exactly where that is, is at the corner of Bog Rd and Tenney Mtn Hgwy, even though the road name sign for Bog Rd has been missing for about 15-years.

Possibly, cutting down on that Walmart brand French Roast strong coffee, $3.92/12 k-pods, which tastes totally excellent would be smart thing for me to do for starters.

Plus I just ordered a book titled "Tinnitus No More: The Complete Guide On Tinnitus Symptoms, Causes, Treatments, & Natural Tinnitus Remedies to Get Rid of Ringing Ears Once and for All" - April 12, 2014 by Brian M Lawrence for $7.99 at Amazon. Let's see what he has to say?

Maybe it's just a coincidence, but my tinnitus seems to have eased a bit since I got my high blood pressure under control.

You know I had a physical exam, about one week ago at Mid-State Health in Plymouth, and the MD told me that tinnitus is a hearing problem and I should go see an audiologist to get some hearing aids.

My blood pressure was 120/72 which are good, safe numbers.

My tinnitus is at its worst at about 4-am and just about every morning, except when it is raining hard, I go take a 2-mile walk down along the Mad River Trail and back around Waterville Valley, and walking usually makes the tinnitus lower its volume and/or disappear almost entirely.

Was my tinnitus caused by the Covid-19? I don't know? I have had three vaxxes of Pfizer in May, June, Sept 2021 and the tinnitus started in Dec 2020 and maybe a month earlier in Nov. Starting in May-2021 it got much louder, and the months of May-June-July were what I consider to be three months of HIGH mental distress trying to adjust with living with the constant noise of loud tinnitus. I have not had any flu like symptoms of congested lungs or any breathing problems or fever that are common to Covid so it seems unlikely it is Covid related.

It's like I sort of get used to it, but at the same time do not really get used to it, and it usually goes away in the afternoon and evening and then comes back at 3-4am in the middle of the night after a visit to the bathroom.

Swimming and playing tennis or pickleball seems to make it disappear entirely, and walking or bicycling are good relief as well. I have lost about 15-lbs going from 6'2" and 212-lbs last December down to 196-lbs so the tinnitus drives me to be more active plus I am a big eater of roast beef, turkey and Italian subs, made-to-order for $5.29 at the Market Basket, plus Brigham's ice cream with Smucker's hot fudge. ..... .... Yes, I just used up all the hot fudge, yesterday, by placing the container upside down in the microwave and miking it for 15-seconds on high to liquify the hot fudge, just like real $6.98 real maple syrup from Walmart! ...

This was definitely my case also.

FLL, how are you doing at this point? I was looking for a white noise machine on Amazon. I noticed the following question and answer for this machine:

QUESTION: Would this help someone who has ringing in their ears?

ANSWERS:
(1) Yes. Sound machines help with tinnitus.
By London Johnson Seller

(2) I've had chronic tinnitus for most of my life and I know that it can be annoying and can cause difficulty going to sleep. With my Big Red Rooster sound machine I have another sound in the room that keeps me from focusing on the ringing. I really like mine.

(3) Yes, it most definitely does help with tinnitus! I rented a vacation house that had one on the night stand. LOVED it, so much so that I'm going to order one. It also helped drown out the nearby nightly train. It even has volume control to make your nature sounds louder or softer, perfect.

FLL, I think you should consider getting a noise machine so you can get a good night of sleep. You mentioned depression a few times. I think lack of sleep can contribute to depression. For me, real natural sounds (like rain and thunder or a brook) work best. Also, don't give up hope for a cure. After you started this thread my tinnitus returned briefly, but it's now 100% gone again. For some people tinnitus may be permanent. For others it may go away over time.

CBD w/turmeric worked wonders for me.
