Being Ill and Tinnitus — Certain Noises Disappeared, Strange Reactions to Head Movements

[Allan1967]

Hello,

Since noise damage in October further exacerbating my tinnitus I went through a spell of living very unhealthy, so much so I pretty much crashed and burned 6 weeks ago with a serious chest infection and overall man flu, which I'm still just getting over.

On Wednesday I picked up a bug that gave me the trots, headache, etc and generally feeling lousy.

Certain noises (I have about 5 now) on both occasions disappeared although my main noise was still about and my tinnitus would behave strangely like react to head movements.

Anyone experienced similar?

Allen I think I may have the same thing going on. Can you describe what you mean when you say your tinnitus is reacting to head movements?
