My hearing has been going over the years. I get the loud roar in my head like I'm in a factory, or like a motor is running in my head, but I am also sensitive to sound. The other day my daughter was just talking and it seemed as though she was screaming, but she wasn't. I think the roaring noise is tinnitus, but I'm not sure. I always forget to tell the doctor about it since I've got too many issues already. I also get migraines, but the migraines are usually visual, without the headaches, and I noticed noise bothers me when I get the migraines. The visual disturbances were strange: seeing rainbows from both eyes followed by brief total blindness. Another time I saw geometric shapes that seemed to move towards a spiral and blocked my visual field for a few hours. So, I imagine sound can get pretty messed up with migraines too. I know my issues have nothing to do with the b vitamins because I take b vitamins every day. I also take cod liver oil for the noise and although it doesn't get rid of the roar, it helps.
