I had off/on tinnitus since childhood and about 15 years ago got pulsatile type also. I had some left ear hearing loss, very little. Mine became 24/7 after my first vaccine and spiked again after the 2nd one. It all calmed back to normal 5 months after the 2nd shot and the booster hasn't really...

Probably the last post from me. I got my Pfizer booster on Nov. 1. I am fine. Tinnitus is marginally louder off and on but totally bearable and not that different from what I always had. I also had very little reaction to the shot. My arm hurt and I got some very minimal shoulder pain for...

Last update from me: It is now 5 months plus a week since my 2nd Pfizer vaccine. My MRI was completely normal. A week after that, my tinnitus is now what it was prior to the vaccines. I am so so happy! I went hours without noticing it for the past week. I hear it now as I type but it's just...

Yes, the ENT said I may be sensitive to "salts" which Aspirin fall into the category of. Oddly Ibuprofen has no effect on me. Tequila must have some, because it does the same thing. Lol.

For those who may have read my posts, I changed from random tinnitus since childhood to 24/7 after the 1st Pfizer vaccine at the end of March. It faded to bearable. I got the 2nd shot and it spiked again (end of April). Then in late July or early August it spiked again when I had a 3-day...

Sorry for any confusion. I was responding to the man that asked if I had a test for the Delta variant. I had not heard of the number of breakthrough infections that were happening. So I had no such test. While I may have had a breakthrough infection, I can't prove it. I had my MRI today. If...

As I said, I'd not heard that there were reports of many breakthrough infections. And I had not heard the Delta variant had different symptoms. It fits, but I have no proof. If I did get the Delta, then thank the lord for my vaccines. If not, then it sure was a very bad 3-day headache and the...

Hi folks. I thought I'd come back and give an update on me. As I said in earlier threads, I had 2 Pfizer shots, and I was "fully vaccinated" on May 4. However, about 2 weeks ago, I got slightly with headache, congestion (not bad, just blocked feeling), and one day of that feeling of "oh I'm...

Yet another update: I had a horrible 2 days and thought oh no, the vaccine is causing this. Nope, I also had headache, pain in temple/upper jaw and a nosebleed. It was triggered by ragweed which is out here. I was miserable and now it's settling down again. I also have a neck issue and had...

I feel for you! It is frustrating indeed. I have read that the Shingles vaccine has a "known issue" for causing/worsening tinnitus. I don't know why. Some medications cause it. Neck injuries can cause it. The list goes on. COVID-19 disease does cause it in some people and even vertigo and...

All I can suggest is finding a sound that is "acceptable" and then using it to mask the A/C sound. I use a box fan in my room when home. I've also used YouTube and used meditation sounds. I use a white noise machine with multiple sound choices when I travel--everything from a fan to rain to a...

After the first shot, about 10 or 12 hours later. It settled a bit, so I got the 2nd and it got louder about 8 hours later. Then it settled again. I was "fully" vaccinated (2 weeks past the 2nd shot) on May 4. It's now mostly not so bad anymore. Loud noises can trigger it and sometimes it just...

I just read a couple of days ago that they are looking into the reports of tinnitus. I think it wasn't taken as seriously since at least one other vaccine (for Shingles) is known to trigger tinnitus. Mine is now much better, finally, 6 weeks after being "fully vaccinated". I think it will...

You sound like me with the Pfizer vaccine. I have posted updates in this thread as things changed. I'm 6 weeks past my 2nd shot and I'm 98% back to baseline. The only difference for me is my tinnitus is 24/7 and not every few days or weeks for a few hours. I can live with this just fine. I...

I know that several of us have blamed the COVID-19 vaccine for our new or worsening tinnitus. I just found this list of drugs that can cause tinnitus. I have taken 3 of them during my life and I've had off/on tinnitus during most of my life. GoodRx.com: These 11 Prescriptions May Cause...

I was 2 weeks past the 2nd shot on May 4. I have no change in the tinnitus. It remains variable in loudness, but mostly low and just the ringing. I have had a few episodes of the pulsating type, but they stop in a few minutes. Since I had both for years before the vaccine, the only "big...

Well I am female and don't have migraines, but I did in my teens and 20's. However an ENT determined I was allergic to "one of the chemicals" in cigarette smoke and said mine were allergy triggered. I grew up in a smoking household. I did smoke in teens to about age 25 and quit. I've not had a...

I've had tinnitus (2 kinds) since childhood. It was always a few hours or days and then gone for weeks or months. I never figured out a trigger except super loud noises. But I had it without. One thing I learned to do was have another noise that masks it. I even sleep with a fan on. Or if...

I knew what the point was, but as I learned after having a car accident and 2 weeks later a miscarriage, doctors won't say it was the cause. Because 60% of first pregnancies end in miscarriage. I suppose if they were all at like 4 months or something, that would get attention. But if all were...

That does sound scary. I wonder what % this has happened to? If it's big enough, it has to be related. I do know I once read that 60% of first pregnancies end in miscarriage--no reason--it just happens.

Agree, and may have made you lose hearing for a while.

Talk to your doctor. I've had tinnitus off and on since I was a kid. From all I've read outside of this thread, such side effects resolve eventually. I did report to VAERS and used the V-Safe app. The V-safe app does NOT let you report adverse effects unless you report at least one side...

I got my first Pfizer shot on March 28. I posted in the first or second page of this thread the details--no side effects except for a mild pain at the injection site and tinnitus 24/7. By the time I did my research and talked to my doctor, I still had the tinnitus but it seemed somewhat faded...

Keep in mind that tinnitus is being reported in the USA from all 3 vaccines. So if you lump all vaccines together, you may get a different percentage. I hope it would be lower but haven't looked at any data.

Mine is in both ears. I got the shot in my left arm. Oddly I "feel/hear" the sound more in my right ear than left. But I think that was always the case whenever I had an episode. The pulsating kind was always in my left ear and as of last night, it started again off and on. But I am reducing a...

Will do. I have a lot of hope now. I read an article about COVID-19 infections. In a study in the UK is a report of a woman (I believe the article actually said girl) who got sick. She got tinnitus and then lost her hearing. It all resolved in 69 days. I assume (I am NOT medically trained so can...

I have never had tinnitus after a vaccine and the injection was given correctly. I'm not scared of needles so I always watch and the needle went in and the plunger followed. My tinnitus is no worse or better since. I always sleep with white noise and it is louder than the fan I use, but doesn't...

I am so thankful I found this site. I have had tinnitus off and on most of my life. I first noticed it as a kid when I took aspirin. Aspirin also made things smell odd or at least a weird nasal sensation. Tequila does the same thing. I haven't used either for decades. As an adult I got it off...
