Hi all. So, I'm currently 1 month and 21 days in with tinnitus. My tinnitus was caused after ear irrigation at a local Urgent Care.
Anyways, I'm 20 and I've had a passion of becoming a police officer ever since I was young. So, I've been thinking about submitting an application at my local departments website. But, now I'm worried how this career will affect my tinnitus.
Deep down, I'm like screw the tinnitus. I want to be a cop and purse this career. It's WHAT I WANT TO DO. But, on the outside, I'm like "man, I'm gonna be dealing with gun noises, sirens, etc". This will definitely make my tinnitus worse.
So, right now, I'm stuck in between. But, at the same time, I'm just going to say screw it and do what I love. I do hope my tinnitus goes away so I can enjoy this career and not have to worry about upsetting it. I don't have any hearing loss according to an audiologist's test, and never had tinnitus before.
