Tinnitus Anyone 🙉

I would seek a highly qualified ENT (Ear, Nose & Throat) specialist. They are all interconnected by a series of capillary type channels.  I get a bout of it about once a month because of loud, very high pitched turbo chargers tearing my ears up for 40+ years along with loud rock music, weapons fire, jet engine noise and God knows what else.

A good douching of all 3 of those interconnected channels did help a lot. I don't hear it in my sleep anymore.

I have an appt with my doctor tomorrow. He is a bad ass doctor and I trust he will do a thorough job. I think I will be seeing an ENT soon. It's likely either an infection or TMJ.  That's my best guess at the moment. It just amazes me how there is nothing I can do to stop it.

This is some temporary relief, but I can't listen to this for long cause it's annoying. Also, taking a shower is nice, cause the water seems to cancel it out.

I have a metal roof on my house and in a rainstorm, it's an awesome sound to go to sleep too.

Yeah, a buddy of mine has an F250 with a very loud turbo so I know what your talking about.  He wants me to drive it for a month so he can put some mile on his hunting truck before he goes hunting, that and the fact that he has to park it on the street.  I told him no problem and that I would probably take it on a road trip lol.  He said to treat it like it was mine and enjoy.  You are referring to the Jake brakes when you say the Jakes correct?

"This is absolute tortuous hell."   Yes it is but you get used to it believe it or not.  Some days are diamonds and some days are stone!  It's funny that you turned off the TV as I have done the same thing thinking that I heard a buzzing noise but no such luck, it's the freaking ringing in my ears.

I get the buzzing noises as well.  It sounds like a Cicada inside the apartment.  That lasts for an hour then back to the ringing. 

To top it all off it's a bitch if you live in an apartment building when the assholes that pull the Fire Alarm Boxes.   You have to listen the the screeching of that alarm until the Hero's from the Fire Department get here to shut the fucking thing off.  Then for 6 Hours it sounds like a Fire Alarm going off constantly.  Ear Plugs don't help one bit because the noise is inside the head.

I even went to a Casino in Rama once and on the way home all I could hear was the sounds of Slot Machines for a full day and then back to ringing the next. Some days it's so loud and if someone says something to you it's like your deaf because you can't hear what they are saying.   My family goes nuts when I am around, they say something and I ask them to repeat themselves. I can sit in a room with them but I don't know if they are taking to me or someone else.

The turbo king lol.  Usually when i'm out cold I don't hear it but some nights it's hard as hell to get to sleep.

When I have trouble getting to sleep I just take 3 Advil gel caps.  Within 30 Minutes I am asleep but the only thing is I'll sleep for 10 to 12 hours.  I don't do that often as I don't want to become addicted to the damn things.
