I got rumbling very low frequency and rather quiet tinnitus sound that began last month. I hear it only when I lie down on my bed at night and everything is quiet. It wakes me up frequently and is there as I wake up in the morning. But it use to disappear after breakfast more or less. Or I don't notice it anymore. Then it is back again in the evening as I go to bed. The sound makes my head feel like it is vibrating, though it is not very loud. Should I check this out for possible medical treatment and could this be the beginning of Menier's although I have not experienced any dizziness?
 
Hi @MountainCreek,
A low rumble or drone etc is quite common with tinnitus.
Menieres comes with losts of symptoms so I wouldn't worry about it being that at the moment if not having any other symptoms...
Keep posting for support...lots of love glynis

OK, that is true, but does is all have to come at once? I guess Menier's could start out very mildly when treatment still can be successful, and only later develop with more severe symptoms.
 
I made the test at

and attach my result below. I put my laptop speaker volume at 16 and have no headphones. I calibrated by matching the calibration sound with the sound I hear from rubbing my own hands in front of my computer (not in front of my nose). This gives an overall lower spectrum than I really have. But the trend is anyway clear. The reverse shape slope, which I believe is characteristic of Menieres.

You really need more than just a trend. You should make an appointment to get a hearing test asap and then go from there.
