Anyone seeing a pattern for several years with people getting tinnitus not related to sound damage. Young people are getting tinnitus, with associated other symptoms like fatigue, faint feeling, headaches, dizziness...etc..
When you know within you scope of friend who has tinnitus..then its too close of a cluster. Personally, i dont believe, young people should be getting these. The last generation were exposed to a lot more louder music and contruction workers do develop hearing loss and tinnitus but not with associated problems of faintness, dizziness with the sort of symptoms that are mentioned in this forum. I see a pattern of an epidemic. I think there is one but the effect on each person varies in severity... What is the medical profession doing ...not tracking this...forum for this...

A close friend of mine has tinnitus and I never knew it. She never knew I had it either. Her husband has diabeties and can hardly feel his left foot. I never knew this either. We all talk too much but don't say enough. My friend claims she got tinnitus from being pregnant with her second child who is now 9 years old. I got T from pretending to be Jimi Hendrix in garage band back in 1980.
Right or wrong, the medical profession does not treat T with the same sense of urgency it treats cancer, ms, spinal cord injury, cerebal palsy, diabities, and a dozen+ diseases and conditions I'm forgetting to mention here. It's estimated 40 million Americans have tinnitus. 12 million have it severly. That is plenty of economic incentive to do something about it. It is also plenty of incentive for snake oil salesman to benefit from it. Please caution young people from listening too long and too loud to music (MP3 players and the like). The other causes of T, what can we do? My neighbor never smoked and died from lung cancer.
