I have a dip in the otoacoustic emissions test between 4-6 kHz indicating some OHC damage. This could shed some light on origins of the tinnitus. My hearing is great for a 41 year old, including on the extended audiogram up to 12.5 kHz.
Has anyone had similar results? The audiologist said that this can happen with age or acoustic trauma. But she didn't rule out the possibility of ototoxic medication having an impact. So still in the dark, as many of us are when trying to understand etiology and prognosis.
