However, if I'm having a bad day or do too much, it increases to full volume.

It's been a good barometer of whether I can tolerate different activities/situations. I hope this helps.
Thanks Smilin Eyes!!! This does help me alot.... It leads me to asking myself...what the heck is my doing while sleeping that is making it go to full volume..lol... I would think the MD would have known that answer.... I did go to ENT and he said everything looks good. I have conductive hearing loss and this whooshing sound isn't helping..... I cant wear my hearing aid since my inury..... turning up the world is torture..if you can imagine. I'm sorry your having a stressed day. Do something kind for yourself. :0)
