My fault. I went to over 400 rock concerts in the late 60s...70s.

It can be almost excruciatingly loud where I will just press my hands against the side of my head knowing that it doesn't help at all. At times the noise seems to be less for a little while but it comes raging back.
I can barely understand things being said on tv and at restaurants I can't hear my wife sitting in front of me but I hear the loudmouth guy clear across the room.

And like others I've been told nothing much can be done.

Wow, that sounds like a huge pain. I've also noticed that it seems to decrease at times. I often wonder if it's something you could train your brain to do, but then I'm not a jedi.
