Ear Tinnitus and Pain with Neuropathy
Does anyone have severe tinnitus and ear pain with their neuropathy? I have small fiber and autonomic neuropathy and I have been getting severe tinnitus (roaring and high pitch noise) and a feeling of pressure and pain for the last month. I am wondering if the neuropathy and/or medications are causing it. I am on gabopentin, cymbalta, and NSAIDS.

Here is the only recent information I could from a non-commercial source. https://medlineplus.gov/druginfo/natural/1019.html
And you can click the tabs here to see what medicines or conditions might have a negative effect or interaction from using Maritime Pine (Pycnogenol). https://www.webmd.com/vitamins/ai/ingredientmono-1019/maritime-pine
So, if it appears from the above information that it would be safe for you to try Maritime Pine, you may want to consider it. If so, let us know if it helps.

1 ReactionLike you I had tinnitus long before neuropathy, but I am wondering if the neuropathy occurred b/c of the tinnitus. Is there any research that shows that?
@zekeflash I had developed tinnitus 16 years ago but it had nothing to do with neuropathy. I now have neuropathy as a result of a surgery. I don’t know if tinnitus can develop from neuropathy. You should ask your ENT doctor if there is a relationship.

1 ReactionNo diagnosis to date. Local doctors in Charleston,SC have no idea. Going back to Mayo, Rochester next month to pursue with neurologist there - Doctor Dirk.

1 ReactionI had two Moderna vaccine shots. Cause of more problems? Not sure.
I had peripheral neuropathy AND tinnitus PRIOR to my two shots of Moderna and experienced no particular side effects from the vax.
I believe reactions are very individual and widely variable.
