Pardon??

Terrible affliction. You have my sympathy.

[cougargirl]

I have this very occasionally, (usually when I've got a cold) and boy does it make your head spin.

You have my sympathies.

Go to the doctors sooner rather than later.

There are various treatments available, most work better the sooner you get it done. Leave it to long not only is it permanent, but will get steadily worse.

I suffer from the same. pain in the arse when you can hear whistlin all the time and nothing else. Funnily enough i can never hear Mrs S ask me to do the washing up. Oh well.

Had it for over a year now, and i have had my fill of it. I also don't sleep well, and snore like a bd, but not sure if either are connected.
Went to the docs a few months ago and got decongestant nasal spray, ear drops and some antibiotics. It helped a little, but did not clear it up. So i am off back again next week.
Fingers crossed they will sort it this time.

I get ear infections alot, I have one coming on at the moment which appears to be accompanied by tensor tympani myoclonus, i.e. a rapid popping noise in my left ear caused by a muscle spasm.

What's the rest of your hearing like?

Since I got my hearing aids i don't notice it so much, until someone mentions it (you B'stard).

What are you talking about? And where did you get this info from?
You are talking complete bks. I am not going to correct you as I don't think giving medical advice on the internet is safe any more, but you are misleading the OP. Please don't.

If the OP wants to PM me, I don't mind giving him some advice (from a better qualified source!)

yep, had it as long as I can remember. About the only thing I can add is that you do tend to ignore it eventually - at least as long as there is noise going on around you. Only time it seriously winds me up is at night when it's perfectly quiet and all I can hear is this damn beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.

Considered getting one of those hearing aids that blocks it but it always seems to be one of those "on the list" things to do.

The symptoms you describe are often associated with getting a large quantity of semen in your ear.

Frankly a GUM clinic would be my first port of call.

Have you checked your ears for wasps...?

Why does it suddenly seem to switch on for a min, or so, and then just go off again? I might have a cicada in my lugs

A simple 'that sounds lovely, think I'm going to try it, is it Friday already?' would have sufficed.

For as long as I can remember, I've had a very high pitched ringing/buzzing noise in my ears. It doesn't really bother me and isn't noticeable when there's any amount of background noise. As far as I know, my hearing is OK.

But at night, when trying to get to sleep and there's no background noise, it's quite noticeable. I tend just to tune it out as it's always been there, but is that tinnitus.....? I just assumed everyone had it and it wasn't until a few years ago when reading about tinnitus that it occurred to me that might be what I have....
