I went to UNC - The audiology department -

Went into the submarine tank - got a hearing test -

had the  "specialist" look in my ear for 4 minutes  -
and told me that my hearing was fine - no damage -
but that there is no cure for the tinnitus I have been suffering - and 
not to worry about it -

charge AFTER my state employees BC/BS was over 300$

thanks-

they gave no rec's for specific earplugs either -

So if you have 300 bucks to burn - thats your place
