Tinnitus and autistic migraines

Over the last few days I gave it a lot of thought.

I get tinnitus attacks every now and then, here and there, and I couldn't find a reason behind it

For me tinnitus feels like drilling, piercing sound getting deaper and deeper into my brain, as if someone was pushing a needle into my ear, Intensity of it varies

I started paying attention to change in environment when it happens

Todays mild 5sec long attack happened after I turned on a boiler

Though I did not hear anything I would swear.

Can it be similar proccess to striplight's buzzing causing migraines? My brain deciphers it from what my ears pick up?

In other words - can tinnitus be another form of an autistic migrain?
