Scraping sounds in ear

Posted by pluttan123 @pluttan123, 4 days ago

I am diagnosed with Parkinson’s recently and take Sinimet. In the last 2 weeks a scraping sound has appeared in my left ear. It’s not like tinnitus and it has a slight pounding feeling also. Does anyone recognize this. Doctor examined the ear and could not see anything.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Parkinson's Disease Support Group.

L-dopa can cause patients to have hallucinations, some ofwhich are auditory. I have these -- I often hear what sounds like a Mens Choir rehearsing. And they only know one piece of music - the theme music for CSI: Las Vegas. I haer them right outside my bedroom window (or so it seems). And, yes, we whave watched this show religiously so that's a thing my hallucinating mind captured. Not the Mormon Tabernacle Choir singing Handel's Messiah; Not Chuck Berry or the Statler broghers or anything I might actually enjoy.

I wonder if these scraping sounds could be an auditory hallucination.

I don’t have hallucinations.
Doctor said it’s tinnitus
