Plucky

I remember experiencing tinnitus at an early age after an ear infection. Then it was with me off and on as I listened to loud music and played guitar in loud rock bands. I began taking zegerid for acid reflux which seemed to intensify the T, but ignored that as inconsequential. I tried wearing earplugs when playing out but hated them. Still the t was never really bothersome and would resolve after a night and next day at most -then one night it came on louder than ever and never went away and... here I am. I have given up playing, one of the greatest joys in my life, cannot read either. My environment is filled with sound generators. The atmosphere is miserable and my life is too.
