The thing is you don't really notice till it's very well developed. Mine weren't anything more than a minor hassle at 80% blocked. 90% blocked it became a real issue socially.
How good is your hearing and do your ears get blocked with water easily?

Mine is more than 90% in the right but it actually doesn't effect hearing till wax or water closes it over completely.
Kind of like an all or nothing situation.

the prefect solution to my occassional tinitus is dancing close to the bass bin in a club.
the top ends, extraneously, cause the ears ring a bit for a few hours after, but thanks to the bowel shuddering power of bass, next day, gone!.

Yeah, one ear. At 90% it started to be impossible to hear anything in a moderately crowded space like a pub or Restaurant. TV was turned up too loud all the time. People either thought I was very attentive or Fcuking rude because I was either straining to hear what they were saying or not hearing them at all.

Operation returned the hearing to normal but it grows back. Probably 70% hearing in the other ear now.

I still don't buy the "official" narrative about 9/11. Oh sure, it happened, fcuk yeah. But who and why and how I'm, not convinced it was what we've been told.

Well I wear hearing aids (30% hearing loss) and with them in then no tinnitus.

When I did (failed) the hearing test the hearing specialist asked if I could lip read.

Hearing aids do nothing for my tinnitus.

To tell the truth eggs are one thing I avoid buying when I’m grocery shopping. So you may say I’m an intermittent egg buyer who usually lets someone else buy them.
