I've also been experiencing problems with my t lately, last week I think I had this random new hissing tone that would pulsate, and now that I have a cold it has gone berserk.
I get this sometimes, my ear rings to certain movements. I think maybe the vibrations of walking impact it somehow.
@Slimer976 its like T changing tone season right now .. so annoying lol, hope you recover from your cold :)
