I use Lindens on Amazon. 5 quid for a hundred tablets, one a day.
Thanks for that - got to be worth a go.

Do you have a link for these?
I'm assuming/hoping it's these ones, as that's what I ordered earlier.
I’m afraid the UK in general is clueless about or indifferent to hearing damage resulting from excessive volume. Travel the tube daily and you’re already at damaging levels of exposure. London city is incredibly noisy, the bloody ambo’s are guaranteed to hurt as the scream by and shops, pubs, restaurants in general have no clue about acoustics and safe noise levels.
Agreed. Large restaurants or pubs with fashionably sparse decor, hard floors and loads of glass are a recipe for hearing damage. I always take ear attenuation with me to social events having been caught out a couple of times with such noisy places. I used to take plugs to gigs and was horrified to see the levels generated in a London gastro pub compared to small concerts.
Was working in Alexandria for 6 month across from my apartment was a mosk prayers were extreamlI went to a gig in Bristol recently to see a band called 65daysofstatic. They were a decent math rock outfit a few years back but seem to have gone down a highly experimental computer generated/algorithmic route... The venue was a large warehouse in an industrial estate, with the main entrance coming into the front side of the stage. Getting in there fairly late meant no choice but to stay in quite close proximity to the PA rig... The whole thing was unmelodic, extremely loud and I spent most of it behind the left speaker near the merch table to stay way from the worst of the SPLs being chucked out. Clearly, the sound engineer was a sadistic bar steward... Visually a memorable night but aurally it was probably the worst thing I have listened to. Nearly 2 weeks on, despite wearing ear plugs I still have a persistent ringing in my right ear. It's become very sensitive all of sudden to loud noise and discomfort.
It's bloody annoying and causing a general lack of sleep and concentration. I've worn ear plugs at venues for 10 years now to look after my hearing and this is the first time an event has left me with any kind of ringing. Sadly this has co-coincided with the purchase of new speakers which I can't really enjoy at the moment. Am really hoping it's temporary and not a long term thing, however doctor google seems to suggest that 14 days is the maximum duration for "temporary" tinitus.
Have any of you guys experienced it for longer and does it tend to ease over time?
Was working in Alexandria for 6 month accross from my flat was a mosque call prays 5 times a day was extremely loud. I counted 48 tannoy speakers. I came home with tinnitus 2 years ago it has never left me have been to the doctors there is no cure. You can get a device that helps but not cure. Have learned to live with it this jet engine in my head never goes off. You need to try and concentrate on other things. I still enjoying my music thank God.I went to a gig in Bristol recently to see a band called 65daysofstatic.
