(its starting to drown out the voices in my head, and now I feel lost not being able to hear them!)... so he scheduled me for an MRI to rule out
Acoustic Neuroma... it is a tumor growning between your ear and brain, so far as I can tell, and typically they require surgery to remove, which could cause facial nerve loss, and hearing loss... so I am hoping that my ringing is due to some other random weird thing, like not wearing ear protection on job sites, or taking too much ibprofin.
