No BP issues. Hearing loss goes hand in hand and genetics also plays a large role.
MD told me if I wanted to become an overnight billionaire, I could just cure Tinnitus and it would be done.

I personally believe it has more to do with the size of the ear canal and problems experienced during childhood. Like most here, I listened to loud music and never wore ear protection when I was younger.
I know most that have served in the military shot a lot more than me, so why don't all vets have this issue.

Four different sets of tubes and numerous ear infections as a child probably had more to do with it. Just my .02

Only good thing about a hearing loss AND having a wife that studied audiology in college, is that she knows it is bad and has to believe me when I say I didn't hear her.
