The really weird thing about my tinnitis is that at times I suddenly realize it has stopped. Other times when the weather is unstable it is REALLY loud. I have had it for over 35 years

ONe thing I’ve noticed is If I press on the roof of
my mouth with a thumb or tongue I can stop the ringing
while I keep pressure on. It comes back as soon as
I stop but who knows, maybe there is a cure there some
where.

Jet engines, explosions, hammer forging, industrial
noise, I guess, only started about 5 years ago.
Some times I don’t notice it that much but sometimes
it’s LOUD.

The weather is changing the pressure in the tubes. Weather changes get to my condition real fast. I've noticed with the tinnitus what frequency ranges I don't hear ringing anymore I also have severe hearing loss.

Sounds like you have blockages in your Eustachian tubes. Have your doctor check this out. All you may need is some stints..............

I haven’t had it for that long but I have had it for around twenty years. Like yours, mine sometimes stops and sometimes it is much louder than at other times. Mine sounds like insects of some sort and the last time it went away for any length of time was in 2009 when I went with a family group and rented a beach house and went swimming in the surf every day for a week. After four or five days of spending an hour or more a day in the surf my tinnitus was almost unnoticeable but it came back within a week of returning home. Maybe I should soak my head in salt water every day.
