[QUOTE="J.P., post: 1996228, member: 6"] Unfortunately I too fall into the 24/7/365 category.... I've suffered from it to some extent for the last 22 years or so. Sometimes it either gets overwhelmingly loud or changes to a more annoying pitch....and I firmly believe it could quite literally drive some people mad! Thankfully it does [I]not[/I] reach that point very often....at least not for now. Dealing with it for so many years you just learn to ignore it to some degree which is helpful considering I also suffer from severe insomnia. It helps to have some background noise running when I attempt to sleep. You know....Radio, TV, fan, etc.....otherwise the ringing will simply frustrate me back awake in the event I do nod out. As with most people who contend with Tinnitus I also suffer from hearing loss.....and mine is actually quite severe. My most recent test (3-4 years ago) indicated that I had 85% loss in my left side! I actually cannot remember the exact results of the right side but IIRC it was somewhere around 15% loss.....definitely not as bad as the other. Of course I'm simply biding my time 'til I find an opportunity to jump on board a class action lawsuit train against COLT Firearms or Laney and Marshall Amplification... :D [/QUOTE]
