Hello all,
I started having ringing in my left ear two weeks ago. Before the ringing I started feeling sick, weak, nauseous, dizzy, some pressure in my forehead, ear popping. The ringing subsided last week when I had about 3 days of relief and it has returned. Sometimes I don't notice it and I use white noise or sound therapy to go to sleep.
I went to urgent care and Doctor said I might have a head cold. Told to buy Zyrtec D. Fast forward one week I seen a ENT, he said no wax in ears. He sent me for CT scan of my sinus and a hearing test and Tympanometry. Will see ENT next week for result. During hearing test they said they noticed my left ear had a mild low frequency loss or something in that nature. Either eay he said my ENT will contact me.
Two days ago I started feeling sick again, same symptoms as two weeks ago so I went to my regular doctor and he said looks like I had some fluid in my ears, however when took the hearing test they put a camera in my ear and couldn't see no fluid.
Regular doctor prescribed me a Z pack (Azithromycin) 250 mg. I took two yesterday which was first day.
I noticed today my ears are ringing louder.
Not sure if it's because of the Z pack or Tympanometry Since they had to put some pressure in my ears.
Also I forgot to mention I take Lexapro and Welbutrin for 3 years and neve had a issue. I have weaned myself down to a low dose of under 1mg of lexapro.
Not sure what to do or if this will subside or go away. It's fustrating and this T has gotten me depressed at first. With the Intensity being louder today I am worried.
Should I stop taking to antibiotic ?
Any advice or thoughts are appreciated
