but have they proven it actually had anything to do with the coffee, because the hordes running out to stock up on coffee and getting sex change operations are going to be my tea upset if its not the coffee.

Women who drink alcohol in loud nightclubs...

No proven causation/correlation, but even if there was, I'm pretty sure a sex change operation wouldn't induce me to drink more coffee.

And I really like coffee, not that anyone cares.

I care

Well in that case I'll willingly divulge that the aroma of good coffee is truly enjoyable, and yes, the stimulative effect on both body and mind after say, that 2nd morning cup is one of life's little miracles. 3 cups however (for me!) teeters on excessive jitteriness to the point of useless contribution to society. But I digress.

So, when is it that you stole my ears? Same situation here and I drink too much coffee. I have no idea if it helps the tinnitus as I haven't gone without caffeine for long enough to establish a baseline. I also suspect my tinnitus is not as bad as some, like my father's.

the aroma of good coffee is truly enjoyable

It was, once, for me.

In my younger days, one of my fondest memories was going to the snack bar at the drive-in movies, getting a Bireley's orange soda, and the smell of hot coffee wafting through the cold air.

In the passing years, no coffee has ever had that same aroma, not even close. There have been various aromas that have transported me back to a specific moment or place. Always a surprise when that happens. But it's never happened with coffee.

That is strange because as a Meniere's sufferer the Tinnitus I have in right ear is pretty extreme. The one
thing I've always been told to avoid is caffeine but I'm not a woman either. I'm slowly becoming bilateral.
I know there's a difference between Meniere's with Tinnitus and only having Tinnitus but it still seems odd
that more coffee could help with Tinnitus unless they're talking about decaf.

On the aroma of coffee brewing, I love the smell of freshly opened can or bag of coffee, I could almost
snort it it smells so good. I still remember going into A&P grocery, as a kid, and if they had just been
grinding beans oh the smell was just heavenly. I never learned to like coffee until I was about 35.

I can look up the exact day, and time, I got Tinnitus in my left ear..
It was during a rifle competition. I had "slipped" my hearing protection off my left ear to talk to a shooter to my left, when a shooter to my right (several positions down) fired his rifle (with a muzzle brake that directs an inordinate amount of the noise sideways, towards me at that moment...).
Left my ear ringing, and three days later, I concluded that it wasn't going to stop. And it hasn't.

The "bright side" is I have now become the "hearing protection nazi" for the gun club, and try to keep other people from hearing damage.

FYI; Electronic "earmuff" hearing protection with built in amplifiers and volume controls (blocking the loud sounds, while amplifying conversation) are SO very worth the money!
If you work in a loud environment where you have to converse, or hear people, and still protect your hearing - don't be a fool, buy a pair!

Paul how about a recommendation on a brand and model?

I have had tinnitus the bulk of my life from an accident when I was a kid (school bus vs car, I was passenger in car that the school bus landed on). I drink copious amounts of coffee; if it helps reduce it, I shudder to think what it would be like if I cut out coffee entirely.
