Pulsatile Tinnitus for 2 Years

[Burak222]

Hi guys, I have pulsatile tinnitus for 2 years (October 2015) and I can't solve this problem.

My Story is;

I was using laptop on my bed for a 6 years (since 2011) and my neck always hurts so it's a dysfunction

In 2015 summer (before my pulsatile begins), I went to dentist because my gums always bled and I decided to have gum surgery, (I did) and the dentist took away my bottom left and right wisdom teeth.

I kept using the laptop on my bed in this position and my neck always hurts as I say

In 2015 November my pulsatile tinnitus start, this sound is heartbeat in my left ear.

First I went to doctors, and my ear, temporal, neck MR, CT was normal

And I did catheter angiography (in my groin) and angio results is normal.

My pulsatile sound is always same (heartbeat) but when I suddenly stand up which increases blood flow and the result is; jaw and neck pressure and pulsatile sound is increasing for 5 or 10 seconds.

I went to dentist and he gave me nightguard for my jaw but I used 1 week and didn't change my pulsatile sound.

Do you have same problem? Pulsatile tinnitus and accompanying jaw and neck pressure?

I have no choice but I always investigate this problem.

May I go to chiropractor? (they are using techniques to adjust the neck)

Do you know craniosacral therapy?

Or do I go to dentist again (maybe inflammation in my wisdom teeth area?)

I know my problem is in neck or jaw because there is jaw and neck pressure since pulsatile tinnitus started)

Sorry for my English but I need advice. Please help me.

I am in a similar position. I have had pt since dec 2014 in my right ear. I hear my pulsatile tinnitus when my head is in certain positions, and I've also experienced it upon standing. I can also press the left side of my neck near my jugular vein and hear the noise in my right ear. I've had all the usual tests and am scheduled for an angiogram soon. Do you mind if I ask how your angiogram was? I'm terrified

I'm on fluticasone and zyrtec for my pulsatile tinnitus, which appears to be related to a sinus or seasonal allergy issue but not positive. The ENTs and other docs who looked at the issue couldn't figure it out. I recently discovered that if I sleep on the side corresponding to the tinnitus, it tends to be less noticeable the next day (e.g. I get the whooshing sound in my left ear; normally I sleep on my right side or on my back, but I noticed it's been getting better on the days I sleep on my left side). Also using white noise everywhere.

If I were u I would first see a chiropractor, because it sounds more neck related then anything and they are very helpful.

My pulsatile tinnitus kept coming back off and on for months. I had thought it got better on days when I slept on a particular side, but after awhile even that stopped helping. Last month I had my Mirena IUD removed and it completely went away. Hoping I'm not jinxing myself by writing this but I've had a whoosh-free month and it's been GLORIOUS. I hope you all resolve your whooshing as it was such a debilitating issue for me!
