Roaring Traffic in My Left Ear

Hi. Ear started acting weird December 2013. Has been a diva all of 2014. Now being an abusive ****.

I have lower frequency hearing loss, with a low to medium pitch loud humming. Occasionally sounds (and feels) like a hurricane is blowing into it. Also, sometimes, all sounds go digitalised/distorted and extra loud so being in a crowded, echoey place is the seventh circle of hell.

Ploughing on nonetheless, plenty to be grateful for. Just getting used to stuff and weaning myself off earplugs in order to habituate and hear the world. Great!

I think melatonin might help sometimes btw. Good luck everybody!
