Hey guys. So my started Clomi again I’m at 25mg. It’s been almost a week. Man the tinnitus changed into a very loud hiss. So far it sadly hasn’t backed down like it usually does. I’m asking for prayers and encouragement. H has actually improved shockingly. I hope to continue but man this spike is very bad and not run with my reactivity. It’s like a reactive hiss twice as loud as my baseline. Any more positive stories are welcomed. - Rich

Hey H friends. Man… I took my first dose of 25mg on Clomi last night. Wow it hit hard. I was thinking if y’all want like a mini video series of the journey. Tbh it’s weird how this time around the Clomi hit harder first dose(I took it years ago). So far increased T but it perceived quieter in my brain. It’s really hard to explain. Reactive T the same for the most part. Extremely nauseous and feels like you’re not in your own reality at times. H is not changed yet. More MEM sadly and weirdly. VSS changed but not worsen, it’s hard to explain. But ya it’s day one. Tbh I wish they made doses more small for ppl in the US. So far I can still talk(last time I was homebound). I’d say I’m mild. The TTTs is 8/10 this go around. Last time it was 10/10. No pain this time around other than deep ache in both ears at random times with random sounds. It’s like each ear has its own mind and tolerances. The H is a 6/10. I pray I can continue the spaced out feeling it’s 9/10. Pray for me guys love you guys. -Rich

Hello Everyone. Some of you remember me from a few years ago. I was one of the ppl who
Tried Clomi for my H. I improved over 3-4 month on Clomi but had to stop due to my heart beating like crazy at higher doeses(150-175). At the time my visual snow didn’t really change other then maybe some random tiny blue dot would appear and disappear. I did get some musical ear(I heard leaf blowers at night lol). I had ttts slightly improve. I only had mild pain and ear fullness, and couldn’t tolerate a single sound. But all in all I improved and wasn’t homebound for a little over a year.

So why I’m back. Welp…. I got H again. I’m not entirely sure. Could be from a few things. Extreme stress, eating very crunchy foods, and a quick dentist appointment(but they didn’t drill or use any loud instruments because I ask them not too.) All of these things happened in a week so I guess it added up. My T spikes and boom the fear of it
Caused my H to return. A lesson… do not fear your T! Stop listening to it. I fell for it and was overly analyzing it. Anyways, I woke up and I knew something was different. I could feel a weird sensation in my ears and I knew what this was like before so I knew I was in the pre-stages of H. So ya extreme anxiety settled in and now certain sounds are bothering me and spiking my T a lot. Darn. Soooo I guess I have to start Clomi again. I definitely don’t want to. I want to try B3(the flushing kind) first for a little. I keep hearing positive improvements from a few here who used it for T and H. Love you guys so much. I know how it feels to be homebound and it’s not fun. I’m always hopeful. Good luck to everyone. - Rich
