Thank you so much @Sammy0225 <3 how's that electric hiss crap? And when you have these set backs, do other sounds come back too?
Sammy0225
@ErikaS You're welcome! It has been calm over the last few days. During these calm periods, there is still an electrical sensation, but it's usually at a low enough level to ignore for most of the day. However, it can still be quite discomforting.

When setbacks occur, it ramps up to a full-blown electric sandstorm mode. To describe it, it feels like hundreds of electric snakes swarming around my ears, accompanied by 3-4 other tones. Once the spike subsides, it returns to a low static hiss, along with another tone that resembles the sound of a flatline machine at the hospital.

The 3-4 other tones I mentioned with setbacks sound like what I can only describe as weird alienated sounds Thankfully I no longer have the wine glass tone ( hated that one)

That sounds so awful. I feel like I've checked out mentally to survive this spike so I haven't even thought about what types and how many, but there's lots going on up there.
