Hi Lydia. Welcome to our small, but select 'Club' :) Reading fact sheets stuff from Tinnitus 'experts' is nearly as annoying as the hum itself !
They never seem to address these issues: ! That it switches of/ on / intermittently- with no other physical markers that anyone can so far pick up. 2 Help sites of this sort always point to the same support routes that have proved ineffective 'for always'. ie: there is never a 'radical new approach' factored in. 3. That there may be a serious and unreported 'issue' that is being cut off from people who are bothered by it and left to struggle along as 'cranks'- by default. [After all -as experts, anything unknown doesn't exist ,eh Geoff?] >From my reading of your first post above, you have the 'classic' Hum. My best personal defence against the wearing Hummm.... is that : I don't know what 'it ' is- and although I care about it's cause[s] and effects - I'm learning not to let it matter, more than it needs to. I can't compare with others readily- but if you can do a quantative assessment it is helpful to see whether the freq, period and intensity is the same in fellow sufferers. Bear in mind there could be phase shifts and varying personal thresholds affecting perceived sounds' characteristics. IMO this is the trickiest pair of variable factors- apart from getting people geographically together on the topic, in the first place. My distant hope is that as more and more people get onto this pesky Hum- they can indeed liaise to good effect on this multi person approach.
