I have a tinnitus that seems to stay 99,9% of the day, it’s away for some minutes sometimes and it’s very high frequency. Imagine a power supply coil whine.

Now the mentally ill part: the tinnitus can change position (left/right ear) and change volume. I didn’t hear the tinnitus on the right ear for some days, now it’s back on it (and still audible on the left ear) after sitting on the couch again.

The couch, you ask? Two weeks ago, when the tinnitus started, we changed the layout of our living room. The couch was now located next to our WiFi router. The tinnitus started shortly after that. I never had tinnitus before. Guess what, the router makes the same noise (even my partner can hear it). After some days of realizing it might be from the router, I changed the position of it to the other side of the room, but now somehow I can still hear the high frequency from the router from 3 meters apart. And as soon as I start sitting on the couch, the tinnitus gets much worse. Even disabling electricity in the full house I still hear that WiFi router noise in my ear.

Am I insane? Is this a thing? Can some frequency cause a tinnitus which can be re-triggered by the same frequency? Can it have a memory effect? Could it be it doesn’t go away even if I don’t sit on the couch for days because all these power supplies have high frequency coil whine in each and every facility these days, which trigger it again?

I feel like Neo from The Matrix who got enlightened and now can hear electricity, but without the rest of the super powers :(

PS: I visited a doctor and am doing the usual medical procedures to deal with tinnitus (Prednisolone 60mg/day), but it doesn’t help in any way.
