Sounds/ringing Tinnitus!

Posted by robinr144 @robinr144, Aug 9, 2023

I have had sounds and ringing in my right ear for a month now. I saw an ENT and he ordered an MRI because I have a history of breast cancer. He also said I need a night guard since I grind my teeth. He says it can be cause by my stress and teeth grinding. The medication I’ve been taking for 20 years has a risk of tinnitus as do many other medications including some antibiotics. Honestly, I am not sure I can live with the ringing.. sounds on my ear!

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Ear, Nose & Throat (ENT) Support Group.

Thanx windyshores... doubly bad as I love music, mostly current and 60's on, left England six months before the Beatles made it big time and before I came over here: many well known pop stars and others performed at Wembley Statdium which was a short walk from where I worked out of school at 16 1/2 til left at 18 1/2 - cold have been me swooning along with the other thousands of teens! Now am actually afraid of music, was choosing a happy birthday you tube for one of my few friends and as soon as i went off computer it reverberated in my head ... not a musical worm of a favourite tune/song, but actually felt I could still here it, albeit softer/lower sounds. Sleep is such a prcious commodity these days for many people. On rare occasions I take half a Claritin - hope it helps you
