After playing in bands for years, the music seemed to get louder and =
louder until anything above a softly spoken word would sound too loud. =
Certain notes on the piano would drill right through my head. The doctor =
diagnosed the condition as Auditory Recruitment and told me that it =
would just get worse with time but avoiding loud sounds would slow the =
progression. Fortunately, he was wrong. After getting out of the band =
business, my hearing slowly got back to normal. I am much more =
protective of my hearing now.

I read your whole letter. What a predicament! I wish I could shed =
some light on your situation, but I cannot. I am writing a response =
only to encourage others on the list to PROTECT YOUR HEARING before you =
get into a similar problem.=20
I began noticing some minor tinnitis a year or two ago. I started =
using earplugs I bought from Pianotek and the situation has not =
worsened. It hasn't gotten better, either, but at the current level I =
can live with it the rest of my life (I'm 54) without feeling =
