Throughout my life I've had a very odd thing happen with my hearing. It happens rarely, once every other month or so. The hearing in one ear or the other will do a complete fade out and be replaced by a high pitched tone. I won't be able to hear anything else in that ear. This will last about a minute, and the tone will slowly fade away while real sounds slowly fade back in. Very rarely, it will be a low pitch instead. I've never been able to relate it's occurance to anything, always completely unexpected. It would be quite frightening if I hadn't been experiencing it my whole life. Does this happen to anyone else, or am I a freak? kim At 9:24 AM +0000 3/16/98, tbajus wrote: >TritoneDW wrote: >> >> Here's the thing--I've had it for as long as I can remember, way >> before I started to listen to loud music.
