I can't find any info about this "marvelous" effect of general anesthesia on tinnitus but this rare phenomenon has been discussed on social media. I wish you be free from TINNITUS forever.

This has been reported in PubMed in as many as 30% of general anesthesia cases? I will research the mechanism and duration of this side effect. Nitrous oxide inhalation has improved tinnitus until it wears off.
