[QUOTE="OK Corgi Rancher, post: 3970311, member: 45773"] Yep... I have it. Bad. Spent years around airplanes and as in intercept operator in the AF. Some days after wearing headsets for 10 or 12 hours and working thru all the static and background noises to hear the target I was listening to my head would be "buzzing" for hours. It's really bad now to the point it aggravates my already significant hearing loss. I'm seeing a neurologist now for migraine issues and she thinks it may be related to the tinnitus. The VA gave me some really nice hearing aids but I just can't stand to wear them. All they seem to do is amplify a lot of background noise like wind, paper rustling, dog toenails on the floor...the really annoying stuff. Drives me freakin' crazy to wear them and I still can't hear voices any better than without them. The VA doc says they're tuned or calibrated properly. If that's the case, I'll do without. [/QUOTE]
