Tonight on 20/20 is a segment called Extremely Sensitive Hearing.   I have no idea what this show is about but possibly it will be of interest.  It is the 20/20 show that airs at 9 PM, not 10 PM

Patti,

It was about a man who had Superior Canal Dehiscence in addition to tinnitus.  He could hear his own voice in his head amplified and distorted, echoing through his skull.  He heard every sound in his body.  His heart beating in his chest was, at times, deafening.  The sound of his own chewing was maddening.

He could hear his own footsteps and the sound of his own chewing as he ate.  The vibrations of passing cars and trains were nearly intolerable.
