lack of vitamin b = ringing ears

Yup. A lack of vitamin B12 can cause all sorts of problems. If you know you're getting the proper amount of vitamins and minerals and still have a deficiency, the problem may be malabsorption.

Signs of vitamin B12 deficiency:

Abnormal gait

Chronic fatigue

Constipation

Depression

Diarrhea

Digestive disorders

Dizziness

Drowsiness

Enlargement of the liver

Eye disorders

Hallucinations

Headaches

Impaired mental function

Impaired nerve function (can cause numbness, pins-and needle sensations, or a burning feeling)

Inflammation of the tongue

Irritability

Labored breathing

Memory loss

Moodiness

Nervousness

Neurological damage

Palpitations

Pernicious anemia

Spinal cord degeneration

Tinnitus

will give it a try. ty.

I also understand a Potassium Deficiency will also cause a ringing in the ears as well as some of the symptoms above...

What foods are rich in vitamin b?

You only need vitamins when you are out of alignment mentally....if your in a natural mindstate you use way less energy to function properly.

maize, rice, donuts.

this really works. I just took a b complex and my multi vitamin and the ringing in my ears is already gone.

Oh, wait, now it's back. Maybe it was just getting out of my chair and moving around that helped.

Got some today......I will try anything.....


.

GINGKO BILOBA helps as well

Tinnitus is one of those responses though, it can be linked to many many things.

Two others would be Hypoxia and Radon.

Just google Tinnitus and add another possibility. You will see how very diverse a symptom it is. It is like a headache, many things are linked to headaches.

I am more interested in what % of the population globally currently has it. If it is very bad and this is something that has been new since, say 2001 I would think that would be indicaqtive of many things.

Wow!

Just remembered those were the names of the Heaven's Gate Cult Leadership. Te and Do.

Ok, maybe it was TEEEEEEEEEEEE and Dough....as in money.

Oh, I should just shut up, you can do this all night every night and not run out of possible dot connections.

Like try Theosophy and Suicide Cults.

And there is something on one of the obsure wikis about another interesting Heaven's Gate connection...

druggist can recomend ear wash products with a suction cup to draw out build up..it ear wash products lossens ear wax build ups causing ringing in the ears ..cause shampoo and residue accumulate and need cleaned out from time to time..

Why would so many people get a B-12 deficiency at the same time? I take B12 and other vitamins every day and I still hear it.

I take a B6/12 supplement daily. I also take 3000IU of Vitamine D and 500mg of Vitamin C with bioflavanoids each day.

Here's my response to the questions......

thx for the reminder OP - vitamins!

Where did you get the info about Radon? My water is full of it since they started mining uranium up the road from me, and I now have ringing ears and one of my kids has chronic headache, and I am now wondering if there is a connection.

Ops a guessing dumbass

[link to en.wikipedia.org]
Vitamin B12 is found in foods that come from animals, including fish, meat, poultry, eggs, milk, and milk product.

This is my main diet, still have ringing in ears, and i also take a multi-vitamin. I would hedge my bets the following treatments would cure it.

Treatment

[link to en.wikipedia.org]

There are many treatments for tinnitus that have been claimed, with varying degrees of statistical reliability:

Objective tinnitus:

* Gamma knife radiosurgery (glomus jugulare)[19]
* Shielding of cochlea by teflon implant[20]
* Botulinum toxin (palatal tremor)[21]
* Propranolol and clonazepam (arterial anatomic variation)[22]
* Clearing ear canal (in the case of e.g. earwax plug)[23]

Subjective tinnitus:

* Drugs and nutrients
o Ginkgo Biloba
o Lidocaine, injection into the inner ear found to suppress the tinnitus for 20 minutes, according to a Swedish study.[24]
o Benzodiazepines (lorazepam, clonazepam)
o Avoidance of caffeine, nicotine, salt[25][26][27]
o The consumption of alcohol has been found to both increase and decrease the severity of tinnitus. Therefore, alcohol's effect on the severity of tinnitus is dependent on the causes of the individual's affliction and cannot be considered a treatment.[28][27]
o Zinc supplementation (where serum zinc deficiency is present)[29][30][31]
o Acamprosate[32]
o Etidronate or sodium fluoride (otosclerosis)[33]
o Lignocaine or anticonvulsants (usually in patients responsive to white noise masking)[34]
o Carbamazepine[35]
o Melatonin (especially for those with sleep disturbance)[36]
o Sertraline[37]
o Vitamin combinations (Lipoflavonoid)[38]
* Electrical stimulation
o Transcranial magnetic stimulation or transcranial direct current stimulation[39][40]
o Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation[41]
o Direct stimulation of auditory cortex by implanted electrodes[42]
o Berthold Langguth, German neurologist would apply an electric or magnetic current for stimulation over the head of the patient to reduce ringing sound. Dirk De Ridder, Belgian neurosurgeon implanted electrodes to the brain of sufferers to normalise overactive neurons. Cambridge scientists also found that lidocaine, an anaesthetic reduces the sound in 2/3 of patients for 5 minutes, but it needs another drug to suppress its dangerous effects.[43]
* Surgery
o Repair of perilymph fistula[44]
* External sound
o The Neuromonics Tinnitus Treatment, introduced first in Australia now in the US.[citation needed]
o Low-pitched sound treatment has shown some positive, encouraging results.(UC, Irvine press release)

o Tinnitus masking[45] (white noise, or better 'shaped' or filtered noise[46]
o Tinnitus retraining therapy[47][48]
o Auditive stimulation therapy (music therapy)[49]
o Compensation for lost frequencies by use of a hearing aid.[50]
o Ultrasonic bone-conduction external acoustic stimulation[51][52]
o Avoidance of outside noise (exogenous tinnitus)[53]
* Psychological
o Cognitive behavioral therapy[54]
* Light-based
o Photobiomodulation (a.k.a. Low Level Laser Therapy); efficacy is debated[55]

And I just thought it was too many years of too loud rock and roll.

ringing ears symptom of biowar. mycoplasma infection. CFS, Gulf War Illness.

Attributing tinnitus just to B12 deficiancy is just dumb. It can be caused by boatloads of stuff. So many things cause tinnitus that a lost of insurance agency's won't even cover it. Mine is cause by TMJ. My jaw is so jacked it inflames the main audio nerve behind the joint causing my left ear and even a little in the right to emit a crazy loud ring sometimes and a very noticable one almost constantly. My friend Dave Shaffer has it so bad from hearing damage he has to leave work sometimes to cope with it. SO FUCK YOU!

Will you people please speak up? I can't hear a damn thing with all this ringing in my ears...years of construction...

Probably the same reason many people have pain in their bones before it rains, a storm, etc, and some don't. I am one of those, as are many people in my family. We all take a daily multi vitamin, but it still never fails.

My youngest gets it the strongest. We don't even have to check the forecast, if she says her bones hurt we KNOW it's going to rain. :)

I've been doing injections now for eight months. The ringing has not improved. It's actually gotten worse since the seismic activity and solar stuff started picking up.

I didn't see potassium in there, but I left my glasses at work. Any connection to low potassium?

thanks

If anything is wrong with us we will just blame it on Vitamin B ok?

b12 cured my tinnitus..

you have to make sure you are absorbing it though.. I find methyl b12 better than cyanocobalamin, and its better to take with intrinsic factor, or get the shots or nasal spray rather than regualar pills.. you can dissolve it under your tongue but i dont find that as effective either

i found it by accident 2 years ago when my tinnitus stopped.

coq10
parasite cleanses
and candida cleanses help too

wouldnt hurt to through in a cal/mag.. i like orotate.

I thought mine was TMJ.. but nope.. vitamin deficiency. (mercury induced degranged mineral transport)

I have ringing in ears from time to time, I had blood tests for Vitamins, they were fine.
Dr says its sinus problems, I need to snort more cocaine apparently.

The list of symptoms provided in the second post are accurate. I can testify to this personally. The only thing that has not improved for me is the ringing. The docs don't have a clue why the ringing persists.
