Been a Few Months

[PDodge]

Hey everyone, I've had noise induced tinnitus for almost two years now. It was terrible at first and since slowly been getting better.

But a few months ago I woke up to hearing my pulse in my left ear, since then it's been on and off and is really only exacerbated when doing something physical like sex. I don't hear it when I'm not doing something physical but my ear feels plugged constantly. I'm not able to normalize the pressure in it also I get random thumps like it's trying... almost feels like my ear is sticky?

I've been the docs to do some routine test and she said I don't have any fluid or wax build up, but I did have a some sinus issues when I first noticed it and was put on 3 courses of steroid nasal spray (approx. 3 months).

I do vape e cig, have a pretty healthy diet, not over weight and exercise quit a bit. Wondering if you awesome people could help me out, maybe point me in some direction as its pretty annoying and the fullness has me stressing me out lately and is affecting my sleep. Also I'll be heading back to the doctors to see if I can get some more help.

Thanks and sorry for the long post!

I have the same issue with my right ear. Mostly occurs when I do any physical activity ( Running, workout). It could be Eustachian Tube Dysfunction.

I am having similar issues..i am also new and posted my MRA findings in the other part of the forum...the 'support' section at the top..not to hijack the thread. I really hooe you get your issue figured out.

Hi, folks,

I've had pulsatile tinnitus (right ear only) for several years now. Mine started after taking a blood pressure drug for the first time. When the pulsating started, I had a terrible, constant feeling of pressure and fullness in the affected ear. Now, however, the feeling of fullness is completely gone. I do still have the pulsating, but it is at a more bearable level now. I think it has something to do with the Eustachian tube, too. There is an imbalance that is created when the pulsating begins, and it has to somehow come back into balance again. It's possible that yours will right itself eventually, too, and the fullness will subside.

Thanks Karen! I think I've been having ET problems. It's seems to have gone away, fullness is still there a bit but I've quit vaping and am on anti-biotics for some fluid in the ear.

I'm glad to hear that things have improved for you. Maybe the antibiotics will help with the fluid so that you won't have these symptoms any more.

Sorry I should have been more specific. I had the whooshing of blood in my hear, on top of high pitch to that fades in and out, like birds chirping
