Cause of Tinnitus
Really big explosion.
While setting up a test stand at work the other day, I leaned over the top of a computer monitor to to access the cables on the back of the computer the monitor was on.
As I leaned over and looked down, the two-tone tinnitus I've had for 30ish years went silent.
Completely silent.

I'm hoping this is an indication that there could actually be a cure.

Anyone else had a similar experience?
 
Every once in a while mine goes away completely for about 30seconds. I can plug my ears and its gone! but then it comes right back :( . I dont know if my brain just completely blocks it out or what, but it gives me hope it might do it permanently at some point.

I had that for 45 seconds in 1997, I was so amazed and thought my life long dream came true, but it came back. After that Full acceptance and coping began. It's heartbreaking , but that's life....
