      Pulsatile tinnitus requires a medical opinion. I suggest you ask @Dr. Nagler or post him a message at the following link: https://www.tinnitustalk.com/forums/ask-a-question.68/

      I realize you probably have already had several medical opinions at this point, but the above is still my suggestion.

      Thank you for extra quick answer. Yeah, I had an opinion from a specialist. The problem is this wasn't more than I read earlier. The sentence was: "you have to live with this", so I will try to ;)

      Have you heard of Dr Shapiro from NYU ?? He's a great doctor ! Spent over am hour revising my exams and talking to me. I think I have pulsatile tinnitus too! Went to see him with all my exams but everything is fine , nothing to be found . Don't know where you leave but you can send him DVDs of CT scans or MRI .

      Good luck :)

      I also was lucky enough to see Dr Shapiro .he was by far the best and most caring specialist I saw.he couldn't find anything unusual on my scans but at least he wanted to run some other test.but there were risk involved with such test.but I would recommend dr Shapiro to any one who has pulsatile tinnitus and wants to exhaust all options in finding a cure

      Hey folks, I also have pt, what's your pt like? Is it there all the time? Mine sounds like the heart of a baby thru an ultrasound and sometimes I do have silence for some moments if I am very still etc. I can also feel pulsations on the pt side.... Its very strange. I have had an MRI that did defected some abnormalities however I haven't seen a neuro yet so.... I don't know how those abnormalities have anything to do with the pt...

      Hi, Laura,

      I have unilateral (right side only) PT, and it is constant. When it first started, it was very loud, and I often felt as if my whole head was vibrating. Also, when I tried to sleep, it made my whole body feel as if it was shaking. Now, my PT sounds like a distant drum; it always seemed to have a drum-like sound to me.

      Since my PT started after taking a blood pressure drug, it seems to be calming down now that I have my blood pressure under control. I've had many tests, and a cause has not been found. However, I'm going to continue working on keeping myself calm and keeping my blood pressure under control. That seems to work best for me.

      Anyone else wish to describe their PT?
