I am sorry...it doesn't go away. It is a symptom of a damaged brain or auditory system. If you want what you had, it will come with all of these aberrancies or speedbumps. Our brain and auditory system can only take so much of the brass and overwhelming noise assaults that we give it unwittingly. And when it has had enough - it tells us in so many words or sounds what it can not understand or take anymore. That is...it gives us phantom pain, sounds and other side effects of a system that can not quite work right like it use to.
We can use therapies and instruments to help us nurse the auditory system so that it can hobble along to help us hear and understand the spoken word. They can help us learn to stay upright and not fall down. They can help us hear just what we want to hear and not the foreign sounds that annoy us. But as research is now just looking into Pandora's box that was opened to see what else the brain has to discover about how hearing loss works, we wait,& work on our own self care as well as watch and wait for new discovers from those who are finding exciting and yet undiscovered avenues of interest that could help in the near future.
