Hyperacusis... can you recover?

Question: Someone told me that you can recover from hyperacusis slowly over time. Is this true?

Answer: Yes, my hyperacusis has been gradually getting better, and other people I speak to say it can get better. In my case it was from noise exposure, and I do have some hearing loss of high frequencies from it. I almost got tinnitus, since it was happening more and more frequently as it was becoming easier to set off from noise exposure. I stopped playing saxophone and listening to loud music, and the tinnitus stopped and the hyperacusis is improving.
