I forgot about mine , until i read this thread, damn it..
have had it for 30 years i guess sticking my head into to the box speakers at Ac Dc concerts wasn't to bright. Meds make it worse but over time , for me it took about 5 years for it to settle. having background noise like a loud fan etc helped for sleeping

Q: What's the difference between a General Practitioner and a Specialist?

A: A GP treats what you've got; a specialist thinks you've got what s/he treats.

amazing!!!!! Here I am on my favorite PN site, talking about the nasty "t", and much to my surprise....I find a hold slug of people with the crummy buzz. I did my share of concerts and also played in a band...and still bang my guitar...but who'd a thunk it!

I usually notice a whining in my ear at night when in bed and it is really quite.

To be honest I just ignore it and it doesn't bother me.

Well, I didn't do concerts, didn't play music loud, lived in the quiet country, etc. I listen to my music loud now, I don't see that it will make any difference anymore!

During an allergy attack, the ringing (cicadas) are louder, like yesterday. For 2 days we have had wind advisories here, and that wind is blowing all the dead leaves and such around, I was miserable last night, and the ringing was bad, still is this morning.

As I have said though, I have adapted to it. It is very bothersome at times, yet it never keeps me from doing things I want to do, nor never keeps me awake. I guess I have accepted it the same as all my other ailments...I do what I can and move on!

They would do more research to determine whether it is in the ear or in the head. I know there is research to say that it is in the head. So, if it is in the head.....what the heck is the cause and what part of the brain does it come from.
