My mothers husband had the tinnitus with ear noise. I remember he would chew sugar free gum, and he often said it helped the pressure and ringing.
Have you seen an ear specialist in Canada 🇨🇦? Since you have socialized medicine, you probably wait months to see a doctor. Maybe make an appointment? Yes, there are hearing aids for the condition, but do not know if they work.
Can you close your bedroom door to block out the fridge noise?
Health issues are no prize.

I’m not sure what a side split house is, is that a duplex, or tri level???
As for doctors, you need a tinnitus specialist, really not sure how your health care in Canada works. Can your doctor refer you to one. .?
Fridges can be noisy. I have a kitchen aid brand, and it’s pretty quiet. I think it depends on the amount of insulation they have.
Take care

@lacy2 Lacy, I've had tinnitus for many years. At first, I really obsessed about it, went to special hearing clinics, had one of those noise-maker hearing aids to "cover the sound", (very expensive, didn't work), attended tinnitus therapy centres, (very expensive, didn't work), attended Psychologist therapy (very expensive, didn't work), attended ENT specialist appointment and only got an information sheet describing what I already knew. In other words, I hate to say it, but there's nothing we can do, other than accept it and figure out what works best for us. You're on the right track, listening to your piano music, etc. I always have my radio talk shows or music on during the day. Mine is very severe now, but it's part of what I got in this life. It is what it is. I've got a lot of serious issues to worry about now. Warmest wishes, Laurie
