I haven't caught up and re-read this whole thread but forget about it there's really nothing you can do. As others have said it just unfortunately "happens" to some people. Started with me also (61 last month) but I do not let it aggravate me as it much as it seems to you. Like yourself I consider myself in pretty good shape (for the shape I'm in.) Just had my yearly physical a few weeks ago, normal blood pressure, total cholesterol level 220 and I'm not on anything for that level (yet.) My "good" cholesterol was at a good high range so my doctor left things alone for now. I told him about occasional ringing (becoming more and more) and he surprisingly didn't have much to say. Basically told me unless it effects my hearing (it doesn't) or totally drives me insane (it doesn't) I have to live with it. Just keep "busy" noise going around you the best you can and concentrate on that, music in your car, TV going in the background in the house, etc. Just start switching gears and "teach" yourself to forget about it, your mind can be a powerful tool. Even the doc told me there's really no fix or any specialist to send me too for promising results. I will not become a bunch of doctors science project.
