I have had T for about a year. My version is the constant hissing or buzzing kind. Sometimes louder than others. It is worse when I take medicine for whatever reason. The one thing that has been good for the past year is that it has not affected my sleep for one minute. I could even take naps during the day and still sleep all night. Then about a week ago something changed. I was walking into my house and heard about 4 or 5 whistles. They were as clear as day. I looked for my wife to come out thinking she was doing it. But it was the T.
Since then I started hearing random noises when I try to sleep. Most of them are like a knock, like something hitting the wall or a drumbeat. One time I heard the whistle again. It is so weird, it is like the T almost lets me get to sleep and then it sends the thump or beat just loud enough to wake me up.
I went to the Doctor 3 days ago. I thought maybe i had Covid and this was affecting me. Well, i tested negative but she did say i had fluid behind my ears. She gave me a steroid shot and recommended to take Flonase daily to get rid of the fluid. That night, which was two nights ago, I slept perfect. I guess the shot was really helping. Then last night the random noises were back. No whistles but the bumps and thumps were back. So I don't know where this is going but it is very frightening. Will I lose my ability to ever get a full nights sleep again? Will I start hearing random noises constantly?
Sorry for the long post, just a little upset currently.
