More new news:
It seems I’m having auditory hallucinations.. I have been hearing a deep bass tempo for months, probably more than a year. I didn’t think much of it. Thought my neighbors were just turning up their music while getting ready for work. It bothered my sleep but nothing major. Then I noticed it playing at 3:30am - all day. I stepped outside and listened but couldn’t tell where it was coming from. My daughter was over- she couldn’t hear it. I can feel the bass vibrating through the floor! I dismissed it all.
I was sitting in the waiting room to see T today and realized I could
still hear that bass playing! It’s me!
It doesn’t sound like tinnitus. I can tell tinnitus sounds are in my ears....these bass sounds seem to come from elsewear. Weird.
T wants me to see my ENT. I’m hard of hearing in my left ear. T thinks I may have something she called ‘musical ear syndrome.’ She said it can happen when you’re hard of hearing and the brain is trying to fill that void. It will fill in the missing sounds with music people have heard in the past. She said it’s probably not mental illness.
The same bass sounds happens over and over. It doesn’t matter if my hearing aid is in or not.
Weird weird weird
Anyone know anything about this?
