Help Please — Would You Classify This as Mild Tinnitus?

[deanalewis]

Hi Folks,

I went to this website http://www.audionotch.com/app/tune/ and I found my tinnitus is around 13906 with the meter 1 quarter of the way from the lowest and windows master speaker volume on 1.

Mine is slightly higher again but its this noise - Would you classify this as mild tinnitus or not? I know mild is generally in the lower frequencies but how does that hold up for me when mine is very low but very high. E.g. nothing masks it but its also hard to be aware of directly as everything in the sound range is louder than it.

Let me know please

How does your tinnitus affect your life? If it does not affect your life to any appreciable degree, then it is mild. If you must make significant compromises in your life because of your tinnitus, then it is not mild.
