Ahhh... Good one. Good thing you mentioned it too. I've had it for a long time, courtesy of too much aspirin, used to fight those hangovers I used to get. Those days are past, but not the ringing. However, I'm a recently diagnosed hypertensive, around 160-100 on a bad day, not so bad on others, but needs to be treated.

I'm on lisinopril now, not too many side effects, minor gastric distress, lessening now, I'll probably adapt to it.

But.. I had noticed an increasing intolerance for MSG, and then for sodium in general. Got headaches a lot, sometimes nosebleeds. I've been on the ACE inhibitor almost three weeks now, and it's working pretty well. I've learned to read food lables for sodium info, and it's pretty hard to avoid, but I'm doing my best.

My point here though, is that I hadn't exactly noticed that my tinnitus had somewhat diminished lately. And that when I'd accidentally ingested some MSG, or got a little bit more ordinary salt in my diet, that the ringing started increasing in intensity.

Just a data point, and A Word To The Wise.

Regards

Bill
