I was out to dinner in an amusement park and wore my ear plugs during dinner. I was surprised how LOUD chewing is. I can appreciate the low volume of T in comparison. I slept the best I've slept in the past 3 weeks last night even with the volume on my nature sounds lower. My left ear rings louder than my right. My preference is to fall asleep on my left side, which I haven't been able to do since the T started. Last night I hardly noticed the T in my left ear.
