- Cause of Tinnitus
- Who knows? I have Patulous ET and ETD + Other things
Hi all
Sorry for the TLDR.
So I'm making a second attempt at finding the cause of my tinnitus in right ear after 6 years.
I've been paying attention to it again and can narrow it down to an artery or vein in my neck.
When I tap the right side of my neck beside the throat leading up to under my ear, I can almost feel it in my ear drum.
My t is high pitched. Sometimes whatever is causing the T twitches, so I hear a ting ting ting sound. Sounds like a nerve spasm.
When wind gets in my ear I hear pulsatile T which lasts a few hours. I can hear blood flow when I stand up quick or move my neck in a certain way.
I have a thyroid goitre, worse on right side.
Have upper spine pain.
When I bend over, immense pressure in my head, I go red, eyes red and full of pressure. Neck feels tight.
I also have problems with the right eustachian tube, feels like fluid is constantly there. problems equalising pressure too, I also have rhinitis. Perhaps the artery or vein is obstructing it...
I had an MRI which was all clear. But I dont know if that looks for the arteries and veins in the neck?
Anyone who can advice on tests to request or similar cases, please do reply.
