Can anybody here modify the volume of your tinnitus by turning your
head, biting down hard, or tensing up your upper front neck muscles as
if somebody was choking you ?????

Im just curious because the only place i saw these symptoms described
was in direct connection with sematosensory tinnitus.....

Anyone else out there experiencing this ???

Most people can do this, including people without tinnitus in a quiet enough
place.

A neurologist, RA Levine at Harvard, has published a number of papers
researching this. Others have mapped out some of the brainstem areas
responsible for the interaction.

What a coinsidence, i actually have an appointment with Dr. Levine on
the 25th of april. The reason i am asking people out there is because
in my 12 years of having T (24 years old now) this is the first time
that i stumbled across my symptoms in black and white.
