Note on Tinitus

It was a surprise that being deafened did not mean "quiet".   The noise in my head ranges from the loud hum of a ships engine to a world cup football match with horns blaring.  Seems to get louder with stress and exertion.   A doctor explained the brian was looking for missing signals.  Over time the brain may push this noise into the background.  I understand that Cochlear Implants which restore a signal, will also kill the Tinitus.
