    Question on Clogged Ears

    That sounds awful, I am going to see an ENT in 2 weeks and I am so nervous about letting them do anything to my ears. I definitely don't want them to put any drops in of any kind!

    Possible Pulsatile Tinnitus — Very Worried

    Hi @Karen, one more question for you if you have a moment. Is it normal for the pulsating to increase with heartrate and exercise? For instance after walking or running up a flight of stairs the pulsing is so strong and fast it is a pounding I can feel it in my entire head. Is that normal, or...

    NiNyu, I understand that sometimes it feels that way. I always try to put my stress/suffering into perspective. For example, the tragic earthquake that affected Nepal on the weekend - I think anyone of them would take T or PT or whatever affliction out there just to have there loved ones back...

    Acupuncture for Tinnitus

    About a month ago I started having PT. The anxiety I had was so high when the pulsing started, I was in sheer panic mode thinking something horrible was happening to me. A friend of mine recommended Acupuncture for anxiety. I have been 3 times (once a week for 3 weeks), and although the pulsing...

    Possible Pulsatile Tinnitus — Very Worried

    @Karen do you know if it is normal to feel a bit of lightheadedness or a little dizzy from the PT? I also feel like the pulsing goes up the side of my head and gives me a bit of pain/headache up the side which feels weird. Any insight you can lend is great, thank you!

    Is My Tinnitus "Pulsatile" Because It's Often Rhythmic?

    @Kaelon thank you for the information, that is good to know that benzos are not known to cause T or PT. I only took them for a very short time so was unsure if they could be the culprit. You seem like a wealth of knowledge, thank you for being so educating to newbies like myself! @Danny Boy not...

    Pulsating Tinnitus from ETD

    @Nole I also thought mine may be due to ETD because it first started with an intense pressure/plugged feeling in my ears that went down but the pulsing has not stopped. I also noticed when I push on veins on my neck the pulsing stops. I am curious if you can stop yours by pushing like that...

    Is My Tinnitus "Pulsatile" Because It's Often Rhythmic?

    @Kaelon I know this is an old post but I am new here, so am just going through other people's threads. I just wanted to mention that I also had taken about 1 week worth of 0.5mg Ativan when I developed pulsatile tinnitus 4 weeks ago. I was on it for a very short period of anxiety that I was...

    New Here and Fellow Pulsatile Tinnitus Sufferer

    Hi Everyone - Found this forum in my endless search for information on why I am hearing pulsing in my head which started about 4 weeks ago.

    Possible Pulsatile Tinnitus — Very Worried

    @Karen thank you for the kind words of encouragement! I have also requested to be referred to an ENT, I would like to have my ears and hearing checked just as a precaution. But I agree that the bloodwork and ultrasound are a good place to start. I did a bit of research today for Tinnitus...

    Possible Pulsatile Tinnitus — Very Worried

    @undecided should I not be hoping they find something? Maybe just my mistake, I was thinking if something was found it may lead to a solution.

    Possible Pulsatile Tinnitus — Very Worried

    @Karen thank you for your kind words. I did go back to the doctors yesterday and he again said that my blood is rushing quite fast through my veins, so he is sending me for some testing and to a cardiologist. He mentioned he could hear a very light heart murmur, but wants to get it checked out...
