I cant even talk at a low volume with someone. Everything hurts my ears and tinnitus new tones are RAGING. I only tried to have a walk with earplugs and do some exercise (going up and down a staircase)

I'm sorry you're going through this, I hope this can subside. What does fatigue feel like
I get the ear fatigue too. I think it is basically like eye strain for the ears. The thing is...when you get eye strain, you can just close your eyes. Ear fatigue is harder to escape.
When mine gets really bad, I escape to my soundproofed music studio. It is whisper quiet in there and somehow, that gives my ears some relief.
I know there are many people on this forum who avoid silence at all costs but because my T is reactive to outside sounds, I actually do much better in total isolation.
Sounds like you are having a rough go of it. Hang in there and stay strong. T and H are beatable...it just takes time.
