Hi Karen. Thanks for your reply. Yea, maybe it's just some strained muscles pushing on the arteries or whatever. I was diagnosed with a benign 'venous hum' before though, allthough it was just a GP and not a specialist of any kind. I also have not done any other tests as mine is very minor and...

Hi everyone, For many years I have a distinct pulsatile tinnitus. When my head / neck are in certain positions, such as sitting with my neck slightly tilted forward, I hear a medium high pitched whining sound which goes from high to low like a car passing by :) Hummmm hummmmm hummmm etc...

Recently I've noticed that I have a 'new' type of tinnitus. It is an extremely low pitched sound. Volume is pretty low but audible at night. It sounds like there is a machine or helicopter making noise, but very far away. At the same time, I'm sure it comes from within my head. Really in the...

Thanks Karen. I have heard from you before in another topic from a while ago when I posted about my 'original' tinnitus :) I feel bad that your cause has not been found and that you have to live with this shit. From the other hand, it is good to know that there is nothing serious behind it...

I've had pulsatile tinnitus for years now, but that has a pretty low volume and was diagnosed as an innocent venous hum. Finally I could accept it and stop worrying about it. Now, sinds 3-4 months I have a new problem. It started with constant daily headaches (in forehead), post nasal drip...

Hi Karen, Thanks for your reply. I just figured that the pitch change has to do with the speed / amount of blood flowing through the veins next to my ears, but who knows what it is. My blood pressure was last checked a couple of months ago and was fine. The PT becomes less loud / disappears...

Hi, I'm 28 years old and 'suffer' from pulsatile tinnitus for at least 5 years now. Probably had it longer, but can't really remember it. Went to the doctor for it a couple of times, but they are thinking that it's just a 'harmless' version of pulsatile tinnitus, so I should just live with it...

I believe I might have had my tinnitus for a very long time, maybe even during childhood. I have normal tinnitus, but also pulsatile tinnitus in both ears. Luckily, the latter is not very loud but audible nonetheless. It is a constant tone that becomes louder and higher pitched on the heart...

I just found this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venous_hum That sounds spot on... If only I knew how a 'venous hum' would sound like to the subject, then I could be sure it is that.

Thanks for your reply Karen. I have no idea how or when it started. Sometimes I even think I might have had it already when I was a child. There is no moment in time that I suddenly started to realized it. :) But 3 years for sure. What worries me is that it comes up when I stand up after...

Hi all, For years I have pulsatile tinnitus. It's not very loud and very high pitched, almost like a mosquito which flyes closeby and then further. The sound syncs with my heart beat. Also, it completely disappears when I lie down flat. When I stand straight, it becomes almost inaudible...

Thanks Karen! And good luck with your tinnitus. Good to hear yours has no serious cause. I might go to the hospital to rule out some things later, but I'm kinda scared for what might come out :D It doesn't 'seem' serious. I'm not even sure about how long I have it. I might have had it already...

Hi, I'm a 27 years old male, fairly skinny and generally healthy. For about 3 years (maybe longer) I have pulsatile tinnitus. I hear a high pitched whooshing sound in my head (mostly in right ear) on the rythm of the heart beat. I'm not sure if it got a bit louder, but lately I am noticing...
