@SilverSpiral,
So loud I could not believe it, maybe 10 times louder than it is normally, maybe more. Piercing.

Fleeting tinnitus is suuuuper common,
but i understand it freaked you out.

Yes that's fleeting T, a lot of people here experience it on and off but it's not permanent 95% of the time.
I get it too, just sit back and give it 30 seconds or so next time it happens and then carry on as normal after it has passed.

Was it painful? Had you experienced anything like it before? Typically fleeting tinnitus is not THAT THAT LOUD, but maybe sometimes it is. If it was regular fleeting tinnitus, I can assure you that many on this board have constant T tones that are easily as loud and louder than what you experienced...
In any case it went away, and worrying about it won't do you any good, so don't worry I guess.
Thanks guys

I had some slight pain in my ear after it happened. First time it has done that! I was just sitting at my work desk...then wham. Im just glad it backed off.

Please can someone who have the same experience as me answer. The last year i have experienced what we called fleeting tinnitus nearly every day. But sometime i get this high tone without earfullness.
Sometimes it come for example when i listen to the sound from the refridgerator and suddenly this tone appear out from nowere. Small sounds can start it up. Usually it fade out in some seconds, sometimes in one minute.
I wonder..if this also are "fleeting tinnitus" even if it not come together with earfullness every time.

Hello friends!
Well... the issue is that i have had tinnitus for about four years now, and since a couple of months ago, i noticed that like 5 or 6 times a day my T spikes for 30 seconds, and then get back to normal intensity. Does anyone knows the reason ? Does it means that my T is worsening or will ? I am not exposed to loud noises...
Thank you very much for your comments, god bless you all!

- Dont know? Maybe loud headphones over ear? Not sure
Hey y'all, I'm pretty worried. I was laying in bed and just sitting there and my left ear started ringing a bit louder but kind of calmed down but I can't tell if I gained a new pitch of tinnitus I'm pretty sure it's all gone. My T effects both ears and started out of nowhere in Spanish class, I had frequent fleeting tinnitus normally before my chronic t. 4 months ago in Spanish my right ear started ringing and it calmed down but normal T just stayed after that. Anyone know if this means anything?
Hi. I'm really scared. I started having the loss of hearing in one ear at a time around 3 months ago along with a ringing noise in the affected ear. Only lasts a few seconds but so scary. At the same time I feel my heart stops and I get a weird warm feeling go right down my body into my legs. Sometimes though it's just a brief loss of hearing for a few seconds or less. Have had 2 ecg and 2 blood tests. First one showed slightly abnormally high thyroid which settled down to normal levels after 2 months. Now am left with this weird buzzing and warm feeling when it happens. Got another appointment with my doctor Tuesday. Am just so scared.
I've had tinnitus for 2 months now and over the past week this has happened to me twice, both times while standing and looking down at a task (not sure if it's related or not): I suddenly got a super loud pure tone, different from my regular T and LOUD over everything, with a slight muffled sensation to my hearing, then over a few seconds it fades away and my hearing goes back to normal.
Does anyone experience this? Does it mean anything? I'm so anxious about it.

I noticed that one or two times a day, I get a T spike. These are loud, and normally last between 15 seconds and 2 minutes. One other strange thing about these spikes is that I get them in both ears, including the healthy non-T ear (I have T only in one ear).
Is there anyone else here who has similar experiences?

Hi, I am 15 an new to tinnitus. I have noise induced tinnitus from a loud concert for over a month now. The ringing is only noticeable in quiet places, but I was sitting down with my friend and all of a sudden my right ear went almost deaf and the ringing was very high pitched and noticeable over my conversation. It went away after like 10 seconds but it scared me so much. It still doesn't feel 100%. I have what I consider mild to moderate tinnitus in both ears. I wasn't listening to any loud noises as I am very careful now with my ears. A month ago, my hearing came out normal. Was this just a temporary spike? What do you think could have caused this? Why only in one ear?
HI @Michelle G
I have corresponded with you before. Please follow the advice that I have previously given you, by clinking on the link below and reading the post and reading my articles in the links provided. You need to give it time for your tinnitus to settle down. Keep away from loud music as you are doing and I strongly advise you to never use headphones even at low volume.
All the best

It's called fleeting tinnitus and it's totally normal, no need to worry about this. Everyone has it sometimes even people without tinnitus
what causes this condition and is it normal?
what's the reason behind it?
btw this is different than my normal tinnitus on my left ear and it's happening once per month or 2 I didn't count
but it was scary so I just want to make sure it's not dangerous
....
sorry for my bad english

I believe this is something all healthy people experience also. I think it's just a spasm of the muscle in the ear. Totally harmless.

Hi all. First of all, I am doing better since my tinnitus onset almost five months ago. Sleeping more and not as stressed. Tinnitus present but not bothering me as much.
However, I occasionally get these loud, I guess what you all refer to as spikes. The pressure changes in my ears and the tone in my right ear, sometimes left, changes noise and gets much louder/prominent. It goes from a high pitched squeal to an almost lower but louder tone. The pressure change in my ear freaks me out.
So far these episodes are rare and last no more than 10 or so seconds. Are these tinnitus spikes? Anybody else get them?
