About
- Gender:
- Male
- Location:
- Nashville, TN
- Occupation:
- Retired Headhunter
- Tinnitus Since:
- 10/2000
- Cause of Tinnitus:
- No clue - but see comments below
- I'm 66 (born early '48), retired from pretty stressful work over the years, very active, sing on a very regular, competitive basis (4 part a capella), work out regularly, avid golfer.
- 5'10" - 170 lbs., married to a very healthy eating vegetarian (I'm not, but close to one), take only blood pressure pills (moderately low dosages) and a small group of vitamins.
- Very infrequent (maybe 1 occurrence per year) illnesses of any sort, non of which last more than a day or two... have never missed a day of work due to a flu, cold, sickness of that sort...
- Minor operations (hernia/wisdom teeth) were the only causes.
- 18 months ago I did have a colonectomy (ascending colon) with stage 2 colon cancer - no chemo, no radiation, no signs of any cancer since.
- Circa 1976 thru circa 1992 I primarily heated my house in Northeastern PA with wood. Bought logging truck loads of wood (4-5 chords uncut) and cut them with a chainsaw... likely spent 8-10 hours a week for 5-6 weeks with a chain saw running in my hands.. loud one
- Circa 1970-1978 did a lot of skeet shooting and small game hunting with a shot gun... of course there was not ear protection available then (he said sarcastically)...
Did not really start realizing that my ears were ringing all the time until about 10-12 years ago... Seems to have increased in volume last few years but it primarily a nuisance... it does not keep me awake at night and does not interfere with my hearing (at least I don't think it does and I pass audiologists tests)...
Would love to get rid of it!!!Interact
