Tinnitus and Tingly/Throbbing Head — I'm from Australia

[Tiggerito]

I believe around the end of 2018 I suddenly developed tinnitus. My memory tells me it was not long after going on a WW2 stunt plane flight.

Symptoms have varied from barely hearing it to it being distracting and pulsating, combined with a tingly/throbbing head that feels like it is under pressure. Currently, it is the latter :-(

Originally I would say it was balanced, but now it seems more to the left.

Hey Tiggerito, I hope things ease up for you. All the best from Ireland.

Thanks, it's a lot better at the moment. 2 weeks until an appointment with my doctor.

I did some more digging into the history of my tinnitus. It seems it first started shortly after my WW2 stunt flight in late 2018, when I also had shingles. It lasted a few months and went away. About two years later, in late 2020, it came back. Since then, I've always had it with varying intensities. The most intense was the last few weeks of last year.
