Second: Don't monitor it from day to day, hour to hour, or it WILL consume you. You will have spikes, good days and bad. But it will always suck because it's tinnitus. Don't try to establish any trends or causality, the ears are so god damn fickle and have a mind of their own. Nothing sucks more than thinking you've turned a corner only to be deceived. Again, it will drive you insane. Ears healing slowly is an understatement, I didn't *notice* any improvements until well past 6 months. I know exactly where you're at dude, by 2 months I had completely given up and welcomed a swift death. Give it more time. After 1-2 years you'll have a better idea of what you're gonna be left with. Just pass the time and let the ears do their thing. Cochlear damage isn't always permanent, inflammation can take ages to resolve.
@FGG has a great theory on this.
