    Tinnitus Despite Wearing Earplugs During Concert

    @Beessie I think I've got my T because I started looking for it. This reddit helped me big time: http://www.reddit.com/r/tinnitus/comments/trn2m/tinnitus_16_years_later_tinnitus_oh_yea_i_forgot/%C2%A0 Also look up Julian Cowan Hill. I am leaving this forum now. Best wishes and God bless you.

    @Beessie Thanks for joining in. A question for you; with your hearing being good (which I read elsewhere in your posts), do you mean that you have '0' (zero) DB loss over all frequencies in your audiogram? From what I know hearing loss between 0 - 20 db is considered normal hearing. Some...

    @Chris Alexander Good to see you doing well mate. I'm kinda like you: I had a hard time with getting tinnitus, but an even harder time with being a pussy about it. God bless you.
