Yeah. I had tinnitus before the concussion. After a while, it just becomes like white noise. I don't really notice it unless I'm in a very quiet space and happen to think about it.

I think there are some therapies that can help reduce the effect, but a lot of the "treatment" seems to be CBT to help you not get upset that it's happening, as far as I can tell.
