I can't get into the docs till Tuesday and I've also relapsed and googled which says tumour. Should I go a and e I'm so worried , I don't have any pain x

This has today eased so can't be serious right ? X

Everyone gets ringing. I know I do. It's certainly not serious.

Tinitus is something everyone gets every now and then (consciously or not), and a surprising fraction of the general population get it chronically (I.e. with no letup). I've always had it, in fact I didn't realise everyone doesn't have it until I was about sixteen. It's especially had when tired or anxious.

If doctor google tells you you've got a brain tumour because of tinitus then give him a slap and tell him he's a prick. :)

I get it too, usually one sided, I think it has to do with tension in the neck and head (in my case).

I get it too from time to time. I'm sure you'll be alright, and since it has eased, I'm sure it's nothing serious.
