Did you have cancer, they did radiation and not stop the washing and the turbulent sounds? Mine are really bad especially at night I just woke up this morning I had about five episodes throughout the night. I have to wait for it all to calm down, it's in my ears or around my ears, I don't know if blood rushing to my ears because I'm laying down. It's awful.

No cancer, I had a dural arteriovenous fistula in brain located near my right ear. That was creating the turbulent blood flow which had me hearing the whooshing 24-7. And yes it was always worse at night. I actually got the idea from that whooshers.com and finally my doc referred me to a neurosurgeon. They tried embolization, but it came right back so my only other option was radiation. It took me a year to work up the nerve for that…but so glad I did. Every day I relish in the silence!!
