Abishag, Lynn brought it up - forgot why. I don't know much about it. My husband is the one she thought could cause he is a musician. Its weird, though. What he likes loud I don't and vice versa. We both have hearing loss on opposite spectrums. (Have foggy thinking today so words arent' coming to me..). He wanted me to listen to something loud from his studio and it gave me a headache. Sometimes I am very sensitive to sound. But I have hearing loss which makes me need tv louder. He, too, though is what they call..forgot. He is, basically, hypersensitive to light and a lot of things. He is a professional guitar player - has been for decades - and it can be loud no matter what kind of music it is. Plus he is over "sound" (amplification) for the army band here. Not sure what got the vein going, but she suggested it. And I just put 2 and 2 together about the other possible relationships. I have TMJ and hearing issues, too. And sometimes do like my IPOD (yes - little speakers in your ears) too loud. Gives me energy... You're very sweet....thank you for your concern and well wishes. Same to you : )
