Himself guessed somatic tinnitus. You have an intense dream which raises your blood pressure changing the pressure in your drum. Upon waking, your body figures out it
was all a dream, blood pressure returns to normal fairly quickly and tinnitus subsides. According to Himself its a classic example of somatic tinnitus and he's very surprised your audiologist didn't pick up on it.

It's unfortunate but he said there's just not a lot you can do for somatic tinnitus. It's normal and he said other than trying to relax before sleep and maybe try a hot bath and a glass of wine there's really nothing at all to worry about.. it's just something that's irritating but not a health threat at all.
Thank you, Bita and Michael. I'll buy that too. I did not see an audiologist, just my regular internist. Because I have no other symptoms and this one isn't troubling, I don't think I'll need a specialist.
Thanks everybody for your input.
