Hi Mark!
Interesting about the blood chemistry. I never thought about that nor have most doctors.
Habituate is a term used by TRT specialists as a way for people to learn to ignore there Tinnitus.
I'm in the same boat as you Mark. I have 10% hearing loss in the high frequencies which is normal. However when i took a DPOAE (Distortion Product Otoacoustic Emissions Test) the case was clear. The blow to the right side of my head destroyed the hair cells in the 1500-2000 htz range. The left side perfect however the right side certainly impacted.
If you ever take an otoacoustic emissions test it'll tell you the exact frequency of your tinnitus and where the damage occurred.

My most recent concussion was extremely mild but it caused an increase in my tinnitus. Since, my tinnitus has increased with no further trauma. The fact that eating or drinking something can cause a spike makes me think it has something to do with blood chemistry.
What do you mean by 'Did you habituate again ?' ?
