I've had tinnitus for about ten years, and since I started protecting my ears it hasn't got any worse - touch wood.

I get more people approaching me about how good I was in 'Napoleon Dynamite' than being in Coldplay.

I've had tinnitus for about 10 years, but since I started protecting my ears it hasn't got any worse. Looking after your ears is unfortunately something you don't think about until there's a problem. I wish I'd thought about it earlier.
