I am hearing about 11khz in left ear only.
Started September 15th - 2013
Stress /anxiety associated
Using a tone generator and ear bud I can locate a position close to the ear that will completely not allow me to not hear the tone being generated by the generator. Move the ear bud ever so slightly and I can again hear the generated tone. Very odd that one exact location does this?
Can change pitch or amplitude by clinching jaw.
Had kidney stone surgery in June of this year.
Do not suspect hearing loss. Age = 47
In previous 6-9 months on three different occasions had very loud tone in suspect ear that came and went within a couple minutes.
Had very bad cold flu last winter.
Sometimes get the swooshing noise like when sick. Fullness/popping too.
Stress seems to effect it too although I am not exactly sure how as my mind is elsewhere during those stressful moments.
Thanks!

Hi Jeff,
Welcome to the forum.
The most important thing at the moment is that you don't panic. Try to tackle problems on a day to day basis, and don't think so much about every slightest detail you can make out. It may be at times odd and peculiar, but it doesn't mean much, and especially it doesn't indicate any dangerous health problem. It may still take a few months, but eventually this nervous over-activity of your hearing system will calm down again.
