I have had tinnitus for years but I started taking a medication that has changed my tinnitus some and once in a while I will hear some intermittent crackling sound going on but it is very short in duration. I never experienced this before this drug. Sometimes the tinnitus does not seem as loud. Also, the loud tones and whistle I had has turned into static and a whistle. It used to be constantly loud. The ringing in my right ear has decreased. Does this mean it is getting better and the left ear will improve?
