hi ladies i hope all is well i have a question i have pulsing in my left ear sometimes it sounds like my heart is beating loudly. i was just diagnosed with high blood pressure i wonder if this could be the cause of it. i had my heart checked out no problems the doctor hasnt really addressed this issue but i was wondering if you ladies have had this problem. i am also wondering if it could be caused by my high blood pressure. since i only had this problem since the doctor has been noting my blood pressure. any information or advice would be greatly appreciated.
thanks ladies
stacey

It sounds like you have a version of tinnitus called pulsatile tinnitus. Tinnitus is basically when you hear a sound in your ear without there being an external source for the sound. Pulsatile tinnitus is associated with high blood pressure but can also be linked to other things. Please make an appointment with an ENT/Audiologist to get this checked out!!!

I have my Neuroanatomy class tomorrow, and I will field this question to my professor who is an audiologist who specializes in tinnitus and will ask him more about this condition!!!

Again, I am only a Speech Pathology grad student, so I am not able to give you a full diagnosis, only a theory so please make an appointment to see an ENT or Audiologist so you can be evaluated professionally because it might be something else!!!

Good luck and I'll write back in if I get some more info!!!
