Just found you all purely by accident. What a great site. I shall enjoy reading all the posts. For the record, I am 63 and have bilateral pulsatile tinnitus and ordinary tinnitus since 2000. Have been all through the MRI, ultrasound blah blah stuff. " Just noticed that following my 3 monthly treatment by my osteopath for a normal neck "MOT"...my PT is better after my neck has been re aligned. He suggests I get my vertebral artery checked out, so have arrange with my specialist to do a MRA on that. Never know. We have to keep plugging away. see you all on the threads. Fuggs
Hi, Fuggs. Welcome to Tinnitus Talk! I'm in my 60's, and have both pulsatile tinnitus and ordinary tinnitus (unilateral), too. I've had a variety of tests, and nothing unusual was found. That is great that your PT improved after a neck alignment! I'll be interested to hear what your specialist has to say about the possibility of a vertebral artery being the cause. I'm at a point where, after trying chiropractors, acupuncture, etc., nothing seems to work, so I have been living with it. My tinnitus and PT both seem to be a little bit better now; it has been 3 1/2 years since mine started, due to an ototoxic drug, and I am hoping it will continue to improve. We're glad you've joined us, and I hope we'll hear more positive news regarding your pulsatile tinnitus! Best wishes, Karen
