i had it because of a medication i was on. Stopped the meds, and it went away.

Tank has it too. He keeps a radio playing most of the time for that reason

Unfortunately, there are a myriad of causes and only a few are treatable...Blood pressure is frequently a problem, especially if you've been taking a lot of anti-histamines. There are a number of inner ear issues, but in the end you have to rule out the treatable stuff...good luck!

There are some guys at work that look at stereo specs all day.

They want to get the one with the best specs for the lowest cost they can find, which is natural, but when I pointed out to them that we all have hearing loss due to turbine engines, they get a stupid look on their face...

Tinnitus? Got it.

Doesn't matter, all that means is that is probably either ear or chronic...were you a rocker or did you crank the radio till your ears bleed when you were young?

Raymond, you sure you didn't get it because you have your head stuck up your arse?

Got it. I try my best to ignore it, thanks for reminding me. [frypan] [frypan] [frypan]

Loud noise aggravates it as does low level chronic noise, like the constant whirr of computer fans. The biggest problem is some voices make it more difficult to clearly hear each word. My hearing isn't too bad, so repeating it louder just makes it worse. I guess it is has to do with the pitch of their voice Vs the constant ringing in my ears. It's totally different if I just ignoring them. :-"
