Tinnitus are sharp sinewaves for me, not white noise
I have tinnitus. It manifests as a sharp sinewave as well. For a week however, the frequency of the sinewave dropped. It sounded exactly how a medium frequency sinewave from my phone, at around maybe 500 mhz( actually its hz) , and it could go down to around 400. It was just for that week, and then it stopped.
Your comment reminded me of that, and I thought it's an interesting enough story
fyi if you're talking about audible sounds it's Hz, or kHz, not mHz :D mine does sound around 8kHz
I meant hz, sorry
Nah, he's just got that Y3K cyber hearing augmentation
Also my tinnitus is at like 10 khz
It's a periodic "tink" for me. It's almost like a sound from a video game.
