Hello yes I’ve gone to TMJ therapy as well and had no good results. I don’t think it’s stress related. It’s possible but I doubt it also for the mouth clenching at night I tried a mouth guard for a while and found no help from it. It comes and goes it’s unpredictable. Sometimes it can be for hours sometimes it’s just a few minutes. You mentioned your a engineer did you you use ear plugs by any chance? cause that’s how it happen for me I woke up one morning with the ear plugs in and felt the thumping.. I also never bin big on caffeine during the time it happened but I do now add caffeine to my diet cause I have almost no energy sometimes during the day… I’ve tried things like CBD before with no results, THC as well but that makes my paranoia levels thru the roof so I don’t recommend phycadelics to anyone suffering with anything cause your going to be to fixated on your problem so avoid that but everyone’s different so you can always try it out. My ENT in Beverly Hills actually mentioned that I try small dosages of mushrooms but I’m not sure if I’m in the right mind state for all of that ..

Hey Zoomer925, nope I did not use ear plugs when I first noticed the ear thumping/spams. Mine just started out of nowhere, I just got done with talking on phone one day, and it just started. It did not stop for 24 hours later. Typically, the thumping will go on for 1.5 days, starts out rapidly at a rate of 2-3 per min, then the rate slowly tapers off and then just stops. I just came from an ENT and they recommend prescription Flonase. Perhaps if could be the eustachian tube, which could also cause/contribute to the ear thumping/spams. Anyhow, I'm going to try that, along with a mouth guard and a serious cut back on caffeine. I've also started taking more B-12, B-6 and Magnesium vitamins. The ENT I visited recommended those for the ear, specifically.
When your thumping is happening, do you notice any changes to hearing, like stuffiness. My ear start to exhibit changes in hearing and fullness/stuffiness. Then, once the thumping stops, my hearing will slowly return.
Yeah, I was considering CBD/THC but glad you mentioned paranoia and fixation, I can certainly see how that could happen. As for mushrooms, hmm, I did not think about that. I agree, I don't think I would venture that far, yet. BTW: That Beverly Hills ENT sounds cool.
