Pulsatile Tinnitus for as Long as I Can Remember — After Gaining Weight, I Now Hear It Constantly

Hello everyone,

I've been a long-time lurker but only now introducing myself. As the title says, I've had pulsatile tinnitus in my right ear for as long as I can remember. I always thought it'll go away with time. But here I am, 36, and the heartbeat sound is still in my right ear.

It used to be on and off, sometimes I wouldn't hear it that much or it was too low for me to pay attention to it but since 4-5 years I've put on some weight and now I hear it constantly. I am not deaf, I've had some hearing tests done and my hearing is fine. Sometimes I have to put a finger on my neck (just below my ear as this stops the heartbeat sound for a bit) and I can hear better.

I need to get a few scans done but because of the costs I haven't yet. I would really love to read some success stories where people got rid of pulsatile tinnitus.

Have a wonderful day.

 

Yes I've had tinnitus for so long, I can't remember when it started for sure, all under control with me - you'll get good help on here, try and keep the stress levels down, and do a little research on human energy vibrations 'vibes' those hippies were right all those years ago - it's all about the vibes man... We are energy - get those vibes up...

 

Same for me, I noticed when I am not stressed I hear it less or it's not loud enough for me to pay attention to it.

I hope to find a solution as soon as I get the tests done though.
