I read somewhere due to brain plasticity (rewires itself), eventually tinnitus sufferrers like us will simply "ignore" that frequency. The problem is it will ignore literally ALL frequency near and around that frequency range.
P.S. Conversations happens between 4khz - 8khz... Piano keys range from 27.5 - 4186.01 Hz. Mariah Carey hits 220Hz - 3,500Hz.

I was diving last week with little bit of allergy and I think my right eustachian tube was blocked.
Now I also have tinnitus and hearing loss of over 6500 Hz and little bit of vertigo.
I went to the ENT and he checked my eardrums and they were fine. He told me to come again after three weeks if it doesn’t get any better.
I think that I have Perilymph Fistula (
American Hearing Research Foundation (AHRF) Perilymph Fistula)
Maybe you have this too?
I hope it heals.
