hi, I'm new.thank you google

I'm going mad crazy! In tears as once again I find myself googling for help at night.I think my doctors think I am crazy. I totally get how this has driven ppl to attempt self harm.I see a neuro as well as my regular dr. My most recent test was MRA on my neck.also had CT scans of head& neck.and MRI of head&neck.only think seen is mild low-lying cerebellum tonsils.I also have suffered with migraines since I was a teen.They're severe now, as many as 8 monthly PLUS ever.single.day I have a 'regular' headache.but I welcome them...I can tolerate them.the migraines I cannot! I've recently had to go to the E.R several times to help take the pain away.I don't know what else to do! I feel this pressure& last yr I had a loud pop sensation with momentarily loss of hearing in my left ear. When I look left it becomes worse.if I bend my chin to neck it lessens.if I apply hard pressure before my ear love it stops but then rushes even faster when I let go.what do I do next? Right now I'm in so much pain.when I bend down even partially my head pounds in rhythm to my ear& makes tears jolt to my eyes it hurts so bad.Medicines aren't helping much if at all.migraines&pulsatile tinnitus are controlling& ruining my life.I don't think anyone takes me seriously about the severity or how crazy it can make one feel with that whooshing in tune to my own damn pulse that seems to never stop.

 

Sorry for the typos,

 

Those headaches exactly describe what I wake with every day unless I have a migraine.picking up the toys from the floor has me in pain within 15m just from the bending causing pressure& head pain.ty,I will be sure to mention it to a doctor.I've had vision problems too but figured it was normal regression

 

Hi.I have 4 kids, but the tinnitus began during my 3yr olds pg or right after(hard to pinpoint) my migraines also became quite severe while pg& landed me in the er a few times.my bp is usually on the mid to low end but was very high at the end of his pregnancy and gets very high during the severe migraines.

 

Hi Kel,
I have had tinnitus "in" both of my ears following a hearing loss caused by a middle ear infection.
I use search engines, yes, Google, to find answers and treatments also.
Are you able to work or go to school and achieve at your pre-tinnitus level? We have to have hope, Kel.
I am sure that you know about the American Tinnitus Association.
Do you have tinnitus without hearing loss?
Best wishes, Kel.

I'm on disability from back issues.had instrumental spinal fusion 4yrs ago. I have extreme sense of hearing to noise even far away but close up sometimes I don't hear some words in a conversation.during an episode of severe head pain my hearing is effected with a muffled sensation, like now.

 

I didn't know of the drug list associated with tinnitus.do they apply to pulsatile? Every medication I'm on is on that list. omg! All my migraine meds,sleep&asthma meds and chronic pain meds.really? ? ! ! Talk about a dead end street

 

I'm hoping not, because there's no way I can just quit them all

 

Karen! I owe you so very much, ive told many ppl about you...referred to as the angelthat reached out to me on here.you may have saved my life! I thank you ! I'm just home from the hospital. Had my first spinal tap, ordered by my neuro after I told him I bet $ I have IH. My opening pressure was a whopping 60! (Normal is 10-15! ) dr drained a lot off me & closed me off at 10.5! I'm waiting on results of a M.S. test as well. Now I can begin to live again &seek proper treatment. Ive suffered for many yrs silently and you karen have ended that for me.I'll never forget your kindness that night! I owe you so much, you've no idea how grateful I am to you.thank you!

 

My tinnitus is silent for the first time in 4yrs .I know it very well may come back as my fluid regenerated, but I'm sooo enjoying these silent moments within my head.it's indescribable to not have the pulsing after so many years! It's left me speechless!

 

This is great news Kellster. Hope it lasts forever. It gives us all hope.
