Although I haven't been buying watches etc for the last few years, I have been able to spend more time on music etc which is great. Spending time with my son helping him with him drumming, shooting some vids for YouTube etc. It's been lots of fun for sure. Here is a recent one, rock on!!

Looks great! Tinnitus is your forever friend. Mine is a constant thankfully low-volume flowing-air sound overlayed with faint hints of buzzing.

Maybe I should take up drums, I’ve had tinnitus since being on the submarine about that long ago… sounds like a good plan except I have no rhythm. Lol.

Solid plan. Rhythm is over rated. Just beat the shit out of the drums and act like you knows what’s up.

Hahah I tore the room apart a few weeks back including the kit. Rebuilt all and rearranged the room!

Have it checked, I just got a 10% disability determination from VA for tinnitus.

Will do! Thanks for the advice.

I've had tinnitus for decades. One day at work not too long ago, it stopped...for about 3 seconds, then started up again.

Weird, but somewhat encouraging that it can go away. I just wish it would go away on a permanent basis.

I deal with it on and off, too. Probably too many loud rehearsals and too much standing near PA speakers when I’m out watching a show.

I've had tinnitus for and long as I can remember. Not sure when it started or why. Could be from too much loud music when younger, gun fire, or 40 plus years of running a boat down the lake at 60+ MPH with wind roaring in your ears. None the less I definitely do not hear high pitch sounds very well.

Thank you for sharing this video!

Now, whenever my wife complains about my golf habit, I’m going to play her this video and tell her I’m going to take up the drums.
