DrvPuneet Maheshwari, ENT. You missed my point completely unless you think the singing voices are an out growth of the tinnitus. Then way did it take 18 plus years to show up. Have you heard or treated anyone with singing voices? Did you discuss this with any phychrist? I am not a scitizaphrinick or bi-polar. I do have the systems of dyslexia. There are only two voices. I can control them. when I lay down and relax they go away or I am not conscience of them. When I wake at night they do not do their thing. But as soon as I get up from resting, sleeping they take what ever my thought is and go to the top of their lunks and it takes me some time to wind them down. Mostly they are a real distraction because I have never read or comprehended very well in my life. Although I have a bachlors degree from Iowa State University in civil engineering. but I got out with a +2 point grade avg.
My ability to supervise people got me where I went before sickness. heart and IBS made me quite work. I wanted to work another five years. the last two years I worked I put in days, nights and week ends just to get my fourty hour/ wk in. I was able vto work until i was 55 to get a full annutity from wodk.

But that being a long story I am interested in you thought about THESE SINGING VOICES. When they first appeared there was a beautiful base and tenor voices. I can not carry a tune in a bushel basket. Please address what you know or can find out about singing voices. My hearing in my right ear is worse than my left. I wear hearing aids and the right is tuned higher than the left.
Thank you for any light you can shead on singing voices would be greatly appreciated. XXXXXXX . My birth date in 8/10/1941.

Hi again,

Sorry for your discomfort. The reason for these ringing sounds mostly are nerve problems. From your history I can understand the difficulty you are going through.

To find out if there is any neurological issue and its extend, please consult an ENT surgeon and get your audiometry test done. Once the cause is identified, probably we can check out the options to treat it. Before a proper examination, it would be futile to say of any cause or treatment.

Methylcobalamine has a role in treating tinnitus, but take this only after proper consultation.
