Some more information? How, since when?
I'd get a referal for an ENT, yes. The sooner the better.

Hi Jurgen,
Are you saying that I should go back to the Doctor and asked to be referred to the ENT???
Think it was the Earbuds I was trying out a month ago ,, Doc had a look and put me on Beclomethasone spray ,,,

You mean you stopped listening to earbuds a month ago? How long were you listening to earbuds your entire life?

I just looked up Beclomethasone and it's for asthma? Now I can add that to my list of useless medications doctors prescribe which includes Claritin and Xanax for tinnitus. Good idea to see ent since the doctor is clueless. An ent can determine what the tinnitus is caused by.
