My eyes / TMJ / Tinnitus

I'm going to describe something as best as I can and I'd like anyone who knows what I'm talking about to tell me what it's called and what I can do about it.

Sometimes I see a weird squiggly line. It moves around, and when I try to focus on it, it moves away. It's really annoying. I only notice it when I focus on it, like when I stare at a wall. It's 1 squggly line in my left eye.

This only used to happen very rarely, hardly ever at all, but now, it's always there.

TMJ is when your jaws click when you open and close your mouth. Again, I used to only get this occasionally but now I have it all the time. Very annoying. What can I do about that?

I also have tinnitus. Again, it only used to happen once in a while, particularly after listening to loud music. But now it's permanent. I only get it in my right ear. What can I do about that?

The eye problem is a floater. Most people have them. You can see them in bright light. They're just bits of protein floating about in your eye. Get your eyes checked once in a while, as the eyes are good places to spot health warnings early (my sister is an optician).

The other things - stress is likely a factor.
