Yes, I can hear it clearly, even at low volume. Anything beyond 15500 I cant "hear" though because that's my T frequency My mom cant hear my T frequency....I tried playing it once and she said she doesn't hear anything (she is 51 years old)

Well my t can spike from sounds at lot less than 80 db. I just recently used a frequency generator to find my t frequency and my t spiked up quite loud for a few days even tho it was very low. So maybe certain sound will spike your t even when wearing ear protection

@GregCA my situation is about the same as yours tinnitus high/low frequencies. @Bill Bauer the A/C situation in hotels bothers me also. But it also bothers my husband who does not have tinnitus. It isn't fun paying for a room and not being able to sleep. Also the bathroom pipes from above...

The low frequency ringing started after I lost my low frequency hearing in the damaged ear, albeit a couple of weeks after the initial damage, but seems to make sense. Unfortunately I've now got high frequency T in my left ear as well, which was really loud this morning but has quietened down a...

My low frequency t reacts to static sounds around the same frequency as my t - fans, traffic, generators, fridge etc. That reaction goes down as soon as the stimulus is removed however. Reactive tinnitus is defined as t that reacts, but stays reactive for hours after the outside stimulus is removed.

Not sure if it corresponds to the area we have hearing loss but I think it does. I can hear up to 16 or 17 kHz and my t sounds pretty close to that tone. Maybe just above where I have the hearing loss. I guess I wouldn't know ow. But people with menieres have low frequency hearing loss and t...

...sure what the relationship between hearing loss and T frequency is, it might just be a theory that they are related. I also have a very low frequency T so I guess I got both ends of the scale. My low frequency T sounds like a train engine rumbling through the ground like in a basement or...

What is "low frequency" to you? My regular T is around 11kHz. So even a 1kHz tone is "low" to me. But yes, I do get that from time to time.

...might one day go to hell. I've had it for over 3 months and I find it so hard to addapt. I sometimes wonder how... I don't know if low frequency tinnitus is easier to deal with. If it's easier to mask then what I can say, I prefer to have low frequency T. Better said I whish I simply didn't...

...starts making noise as it bounces around in the drum. After surgery I was left with the high pitch T, and a sporadically would get low frequency T like a fog horn. It would visit me mostly when I'd lay down, and then stay for a couple of days, and go away for a couple of weeks. Unfortunately...

Are u using an hearing aid? My T seems to fluctuate badly, I have persistent loss of high frequency sounds but my low frequency changes up to 30 to 40 decibels! When my low frequency drops I have a very loud hum in addition to my constant high frequency tinnitus. It's hard to habituate to these...

Got T 25 years ago when opening my mouth my jaws were tight. I opened then wider that when I notice a low-frequency sound.

A fan doesn't seem to do much for me either. Is that because it is low frequency i wonder? I play this river and crickets track and at low volume it covers the T noise up perfectly.

Hello @Joe J, I read your post about your T frequency getting higher and higher. Mine has also gotten higher in frequency and I think I may have made the same comment back in one of my earlier posts. I've noticed that not only has my T become higher in frequency, but I'm starting to have more...

Two decades with this shit. But I have high and low frequency tinnitus too with it and I doubt my H could go without the T going too, as low frequency tinnitus in my case IS the hyperacusis itself, as it combines with exterior sound. Did @Bill Bauer @Sebastians tinnituses stay the exact same...

I suffer with severe high frequency noise induced T and suffered terrible insomnia and anxiety over the years because of it. Mirtazapine recently worked best for sleep for me at 7.5mg but apparently does nothing for anxiety that low. Once I got in control of my sleep again the anxiety did ease a...

@ashlee I find my low tones harder to deal with than higher pitched T. There's quite a lot of low frequency noise everywhere, and then the recruitment comes into play, and these sound won't blend into the background noise that well anymore.

@DaveO High-pitched tinnitus is "easy" to diagnose because it's almost invariably tied, to some extent, to high frequency hearing loss -- which typically occurs before low-frequency loss. However, low-frequency "humming" T can certainly be a symptom of low frequency loss (I think this is what...

I wonder why some people have the pain feeling and for others, it’s just a sound. What is causing that pain? Is it the frequency? Maybe when the tinnitus is a specific frequency, the brain interprets it as a feeling, too, and it’s painful because encountering that sound in real life would be...

I have sub bass T and high frequency T too. If I try to mask, the low freq T is above the masking sound or the recruitment and distorted sound that I get on many bass frequencies makes the masking sounds pretty much useless.

I don't want to get into a debate which is worse. This is subjective. The neurostimulator therapy I am doing at the moment pushes the tinnitus down in frequency (approximately from 9.5kHz to 4-5 kHz). For me personally, I find this less intrusive/tiring. The 9.5 kHz frequency feels more "sharp"...

...others without laser therapy have seen this improvement also without any drug. My neighbor got sudden low frequency hearing loss and low frequency T and cured without any treatment in a year on its own.Some T remained to him but his audiogram is close to normal now his got cortisone only the...

is your T maskable?

I'm sorry to hear that. I have also low frequency T, and it reacts to other low frequency tones as well, so I know the feeling. I bought a dB-meter with C-weighting ( dB(C) ), to get some idea how loud these sounds actually are. (dB(C) derates low frequencies much less than commonly used dB(A)...

I stand by my statement and i been on benzos as well and my tinnitus is high frequency. benzos did not make my tinnitus disappear at all. Maybe OP has a low hiss/low tone, i have demon based/high frequency tinnitus, so i careless if you agree or not....

I have a helicopter type bass tinnitus that also ramps up with noises and cut´s through pretty much everything. I have have trouble with low frequency background noise (traffic, compressors, air conditioning, vehicles, etc... and oh yes helicopters) and it sounds like drumming in helicopter as...

Yes and No. Frequency in Hz is used to tell the amount of occurrences per second. If our heart beats 60 times per minute, or once per second, then it beats with a frequency of 1Hz. The frequency of the sound that is typically associated with heartbeat isn´t 1Hz, it´s probably somewhere around 100Hz.

I've read that some people with low frequency T can indeed somehow feel it vibrating in their head, so I think this is a clear tinnitus case.

I notice that alot ppl high frequency T seems to come and go and sometimes easier to mask then the low frequency. I also heard that after a couple of months or years that they dont even hear their high pitched T anymore. I wonder is this due the gradual hearing lost with age or if their brain...

I have had too many tests to count but here is the major ones related to T: audiogram (above average) high frequency test (above average) tinnitus frequency match (could not match) tinnitus loudness match extensive blood work (mostly good, low vitamin D) MRI (no findings for tinnitus, other...

The brain isn't good at determining directionality with low frequencies (even without T).

Yes, too much of anything is a bad thing. High pitch T cuts through everything and is painful. On the other hand, low frequency sounds are always present atleast if there's some traffic or home appliances nearby, so it's still it's like listening your T through a broken speaker all the time.

Has anyone seen this online tone tester. No good for me as my T is too low frequency but looks useful. http://www.audionotch.com/app/tune/

Sometimes I hear low-flying airplanes or my dryer powering down. My T is a really high frequency sound, so it really helps. Just thought I'd mention it.

Thank you for explaining! I now understand :) it sucks how it may be not all of the tinnitus that will be eliminated though, it'd be nice to hear complete silence. Who knows, maybe we will :)

Glad the low frequency T is back to normal. For the exterior noise, have you tried using ear plug or those ear protection devices the look like headphones. I am on my 2nd day of low T It was very loud roaring hissing for 10 days, when I woke up yesterday it was down to a very low level. I did...

...your head is really full and feels like having a bass box near your ears. I can only agree with Ben since I have both extremely low frequency tones but also several ones above 6k. Don't really care for the high ones. Low frequency oscillating drone t is just extremely exhausting. Not...

If you have some high frequency hearing loss and resulting T - any unnatural increase in low frequency noise - AC, fans, etc.. can trick the brain into thinking that there is more high frequency loss than there actually is. I noticed that as well The solution is to play some very high frequncy...

@aylp Your a bright guy. So sorry about your hearing and Problems. Let me ask you, I had sudden hearing loss mainly low frequency in one ear. This is after my onset of high pitch T by hearing loss and general music abuse, possible pain meds (low dose Percocet for other issue) 7 months ago. I...

re: whats your frequency of your t: Based on the one of frequency tester I landed on around 12,500 on their scale. I then removed that frequency from the sound track. re: listing to them outside. Thats the best part for me. It seems my mind believe the T sound is part of the external sound...

Idk. I've had it before but never like this. I haven't really done anything. It seems like there is some sort of congestion in there. I hear my heart beating too. When I turn my head upside down I hear all this loud whooshing. It sounds like a machine in there.

Yes, as we age, we all lose hearing in the higher frequencies. My t however is a low frequency t. Reviewing the results of both MRI and hearing tests, I really think the changes for me have occurred at the brain, central auditory cortex level.

It may depend on the exact faucet :) For my faucet, if I measure the sound with a spectrum analyzer, there is substantial volume all the way up to 20 kHz, which is essentially the highest audible frequency for any human. I don't think it's possible for T to be even higher than this (though I...

It would have to be a VERY loud high pitched noise to cause tinnitus, plus our Tinnitus frequency isn't normally the same as the noise that caused the damage, if that were the case most of us would have low to mid range frequency tinnitus. Your car's lcd display isn't causing your T, could be...

Yes I am, but it's not helping that much. I understand. It's a moving target. I was originally (mis)diagnosed as having hydrops and given a diuretic. Just a day after the first dose of diuretic is when my T appeared. I just had hearing loss before that. I don't know if the diuretic is...

If you could care less about others opinions, why are you on a forum? I too have the high pitched "electric T" that I can always hear (except in the shower or around loud music).

Well as someone who want to habituate fully i will personally not try tomeasure my T, but it's low compared to some members here. But in facts i don't think it always means something, i mean as it's not a real sounds, i think there are T that are easily masked but sounds loud in silence and...

My T was ringing bad when taking the tone test. I could really hear him when he spoke though..so weird...but it only flares up when I feel I have ETD..when that subsides Its at a low frequency

From all the journals I have read it is often a mid frequency loss, but it can vary quite a lot. Because it can affect muscle tension around the ears and in the middle ear muscles it also may be able to contribute to low frequency losses (conductive variety). If you have T and hearing loss in...

Hello! I am new here and this is my first post. I have had tinnitus for 10 years. The tinnitus can be described as very low pitched (engine sound), in my left ear. Sometimes it feels like the ear is "vibrating". It is a very disturbing sound:( Anyone else here who has a low frequency T?

Hi @LadyDi. Yes, the range of my most annoying frequency starts that low. I phoned Australia's Neuromonics main guy. He said the audiologists can only input as low as 250hz. But then an audiologist says it goes down to 125hz. As I understand it, the broadband noise is supposed to cater to 1...

Hi, I have been reading this forum to get me through the past few months and the people and info are wonderful. It has answered so many questions for me. I know that I am supposed to habituate and have been trying so hard. It's a losing battle so far. I also suffer from severe chronic neck...

Given that your hearing loss is pretty consistent across all frequencies, where do you hear your T (i.e. what frequency is it)? Before my surgery, my low frequency hearing was a bit worse than it is now (in my audiogram), but high frequency hearing was much better. So I had some mid range T...

@Contrast I got a 90 yrs old ears , I . Fuc....k screwed I think .Left ear with T very bad 70 dB loss @ 6 k Right ears not too bad 40 dB @6k . Hearing Aid do help a little in my left ears. You think I will be able to get help from frequency Hearing regeneration. Low frequency , mid are good.

Hey Greg, I was curious if you ever experienced episodes where the world seemed quiet (you could hear but there was no depth if you know what I mean, akin to low frequency hearing loss)? What did your tinnitus sound like on onset? Did you ever get low frequency constant drones intermittent...

@rmnkby and @DaveFromChicago Curious how loud is your t (do you hear it over tv/driving etc) and is it high or low frequency? Any hearing loss? Very encouraging and glad to hear people find something that works for them:)

So YAY, made the 2 year mark. Right now, the T is pretty variable day to day, from almost quiet to moderate. In a given week, I might have 2 very quiet days, 2 low volume days and 2-3 moderate high volume. Yesterday was moderately noisy, this morning woke up and it was low volume, then took...

...no. I never tested what my T frequency is, because the sound can change, it can be a scintillating sound and sometimes it's a really low frequency that I hear (just as annoying as a high-frequency sound). Besides, what benefit would I have in testing my T frequency? I can't cure it anyway...
