I Hated the Silence Until I Lost It

Hello everyone, first I would like to apologize for having to use a translator, I do not know English but I am learning it.

I introduce myself, my name is Ramón, I am 28 years old, I am from Spain and as the title says, I have never liked silence.
This does not mean that I listened to music all day, on the contrary, I just preferred to have a background noise like the fan instead of silence.

Exactly 11 months ago the tinnitus appeared, it was a Friday night when after watching a movie with my brother I went to sleep and the next morning I was there.

Honestly I do not know what could have produced it, but I do not rule out anything, a hearing loss (although according to the tests I do not have it), problems with the TMJ (since the tinnitus appeared, my teeth have not been re-fitted in the same way), problems cervical / muscle or even pressure problems in the ears (It happens to me of all the life and with a lot of frequency that there is a vacuum in the ear and a beep is heard) so I do not know what could have produced it maybe a set of all

The main sound is in the left ear 24/7 and sounds like 2 tones, similar to a morse code, but longer, it is difficult to explain and then I have another that is a general static tone in both ears (the latter I think is more due to muscular tension because it sharpens me with movements of neck and jaw) that bothers me less
I also have slight hyperacusis to certain sounds, but I've noticed that with the valsalva maneuver two things happen, 1st that I do not mind the sound and 2nd that while I perform it I do not hear the sound, does anyone else pass it? have if someone can respond to that.

To end thank you for being there, I have been following and reading from the beginning and I have found great relief in you.
Also thank in advance to whom answer and nothing more, a greeting and pray for your improvement and mine

 

¡ Hola Ramón ! Bienvenido.

This flowchart can guide you (and your doctors) towards a diagnosis.
Remember that even a "perfect score" during pure tone audiometry testing doesn't mean you have no hearing loss. See https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fnins.2016.00288/full

¡ Suerte !

 

First of all, your English sounds fine, you don't need to worry about it.

Please be careful with Valsalva maneuver. Several people on this forum got their tinnitus as a result of this maneuver.

 

I can translate for you if you ever need it.

 

I hope not to be disrespectful with the rest of the forum but I am going to answer to Ramon in Spanish as is my mother tongue:
