Hi,

I have always had tinnitus, well, for as long as I can remember, but it never really bothered me too much. About a month ago, though, the pulsatile tinnitus started, and I hate it so much.

My doctor thinks it might be connected to having colds since I recently started working with children and have had constant sniffles. If that is the cause, can it be cured? I am on the waiting list to see an ENT, but I just do not feel positive about it. I feel like this is something I am going to have forever now.

Sometimes it gets so loud, but then randomly, I will wake up, and it will be quieter. It crackles a lot too. Sometimes it even goes silent for a few seconds and then comes back.

I just do not know if I can live with it… or I guess I can, but I will hate it. 😫
