Unfortunately, I have a slight case of Tinnitus, or ringing of the ear(s). It's not bad as some people's, but it drives me nuts when it's too quiet.
Unfortunately as well, unless there's a bit of noise it really stands out and sometimes destroys any relaxation that keeps me under the water as long as I can. That's only when it's bad, though. However, lately it has crept back in. My right ear, to be exact.
Does anybody else have this problem? and if so, have you found anything that helps?
As I haven't yet had the pleasure of going deep as most of you have (stuck in Texas, remember?), I don't know how it will effect my dives after equalizing to deeper pressures, hence letting me hear more underwater currents and activities, thus keeping attention away from that damned ringing.
I do what I can, folks, but sometimes it's nice to know if people can do more to help.
gimme a hollar, but not in my right ear, please, heh-heh.
