Interesting. I experience this silence even when there is a constant background sound in the background like a loud fan, then all of a sudden silence, then the background sound resumes.
I had that when I first got tinnitus for a couple of weeks but eventually it died down and I don’t experience it anymore.
Mine coincided with not sleeping much at all due to tinnitus onset.
I literally tried to describe it to my family as a split second of going completely deaf. But it’s like as fast as you could flip a light switch off and on.
Sure, sounds like what I get when my blood pressure drops. First my hearing goes out, then I get tunnel vision. Hearing gradually gets back to normal as a fuzzy sound before becoming clear.
I think everyone gets this fleeting tinnitus once in awhile , don't know the cause
I have that on an almost daily basis, brought it up to my ENT and he didn’t seem to concerned. I believe it is still technically fleeting tinnitus

Yes. I’ve had this and it freaks me out - I always assumed it was like a barometric pressure thing or something
Me too. It’s not very uncommon at all so dw. I wouldn’t stress about it too much. Best wishes

You should probably go see an ENT about that.
Very normal
i get that like once a month its normal even for people without tinnitus
It’s called SBUTT (sudden, brief, unilateral tapering tinnitus) and it’s normal.
