@jpresti1 Hyperacusis is a hearing disorder associated with ageing, tinnitus [many people having tinnitus also experience hyperacusis]

Here is an article from WebMD about hyperacusis: https://www.webmd.com/brain/sound-sensitivity-hyperacusis

Have you been diagnosed with hyperacusis? Within our hearing loss group here on Mayo Clinic Connect, thete is a discussion that includes information about hyperacusis: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/noise-sensitivity-with-hearing-loss/
I suggest you check out the posts there. Will you do that?
