I can easily hear up to 17.5k on very low levels. Gotta crank it up to hear until around 19k. Both ears seem about even. I haven't tried doing it too loud as I'm too scared. Don't get how having this kind of hearing can lead to such severe tinnitus, honestly. What caused your T?
@ASilverLight Have you run that test on proper speakers that cover the whole range completely? Even headphones have problems with this, because even with headphones I couldn't hear 20khz, but with studio monitors I can hear 20khz as loud as any other frequency. I still don't know what caused my T, I just know it happened after I got sick from drinking alcohol at high altitude.
@ASilverLight I theorize in my case that my blood pressure got so high from that event and irritated some nerves, messing with the balance in my auditory cortex which resulted in faulty neuroplasticity that just can't resolve due to a constant feedback loop.
I haven't, I've just used very high quality headphones that can go up to 20k. I do know that around the onset of my tinnitus I had a major panic attack lasting over 2 days and after that it became the way it is now.
I also get one tone loudly when I'm either super hot or emotional so I wonder if blood pressure has a say in that. I know mine isn't noise induced, at least that's not the main culprit at all. No acoustic trauma before onset and not all that much loud noise exposure.
So stress/anxiety, along with a sinus infection and some other likely issue AND neck trauma... I'm just hoping that once some get treated, the tinnitus goes down too.
soz for the 3 messages lol, feel free to PM if you wanna discuss more!
