    Intermittent Fluttering — Am I Dealing with Tensor Tympani Syndrome (TTTS)?

    Yeah, it cleared up after a few days of making this post. Haven't had it since. After doing some research and talking to a few ENTs, it's basically just a muscle spasm in your ear, like an eye twitch (just 10x more annoying, lol). In the vast majority of people it will go away unless you have...

    Intermittent Fluttering — Am I Dealing with Tensor Tympani Syndrome (TTTS)?

    I wouldn't say I've had any stressful events, maybe just trouble sleeping occasionally. It really feels like it came out of nowhere. It's been lessening over the days in frequency quite a bit, and actually started to back up in my left ear a little. Thank you for the responses by the way.

    Intermittent Fluttering — Am I Dealing with Tensor Tympani Syndrome (TTTS)?

    I don’t really have a history of that. I went to a couple loud concerts as a teen. No pain or anything like that, just very minor ear ringing now and then.

    Tinnitus Flared Up — Appears to Be Reactive to External Noises

    So I’ve dealt with anxiety induced tinnitus for the past 5 years or so. Most of the time it’s so quiet that it is unnoticeable but every once in a while I get ‘flare-ups’, and each time it’s a little different and seems to be random. I woke up this morning realizing that I could only hear...

    Do I Have Tinnitus?

    @seal That is reassuring. Honestly I don't have it nearly as bad as most people on this site. I completely forget about it when I'm driving around or really busy with something. The only times I really notice it is if I'm in a room with no background noise. Hopefully you're right with it going...

    Do I Have Tinnitus?

    So I'm 21 and I think I've had tinnitus for about a week but it sounds like a high frequency noise. I'm not talking about a really high pitched note. I'm talking about the sound you hear when an old CRT turns on. I only get it in my left ear and it's fairly quiet but there just enough to be...
