Any tinnitus?

Hi David. Early on I had very bad tinnitus. Very loud and constant. Now I have almost no tinnitus. If I get tinnitus I use that signal generator to play the tone back to my bad ear that it is ringing at and it usually clears it up. For me it seems to be around 300Hz to 1kHz. So I try to find the frequency my ear is ringing at and listen to that tone. When that one is fixed usually another appears. Then another. And after maybe 10 minutes I seem to be able to catch them all. I do that about once a fortnight at the moment if I wake up with tinnitus.

“SSHL affects one in 10,000.” This would be the annual incidence, and there is quite a range of estimates of it (and perhaps variation in different populations). (Eg “5 to 20 cases per 100,000” https://eyeandear.org.au/patients-visitors/fact-sheets/sudden-sensorineural-hearing-loss/ ) Given that many do not recover, the prevalence would be at least 1 in a 1000 (right?), and so yes it is puzzling why we don’t know of more cases in a city the size of Dubbo, say.

Annual incidence. I see. So yes there should be a lot more people with it. You are the only one I’ve met!
