1. For the last two weeks I’ve been having troubles with my ears. They both feel like they need to pop, but I cannot pop them. My right ear is really messed up, white noises hurt my ears, and I hear a loud ringing when tap water is running, or there’s static on the radio. When I watch TV I can hear sound effects out of my right ear, but voices are very, very faint. My left ear is fine, other than the feeling that it needs to pop. They are not dirty, I’ve tried cleaning them many times.
2. I’ve been really shaky lately, like the other day at dinner, it felt like my hand completely relaxed and my fork randomly fell out of my hand and I could not stop my pinkie from moving back and forth. and my muscles have random twitches everywhere in my body. Or I will be walking and my calves will randomly feel heavy. Also, I’ve been having random Pulses of numbness in my face, particularly in my cheeks, its very strange and feels like a bug crawling across my face.
3. I’m having difficulties falling asleep.
4. My heart will randomly start beating really strongly, and it’s almost as if I can feel all the blood moving throughout my body, with no anxiety or stressful situations. I will just be sitting there and randomly start to feel my heart beating really strong.
5. I get winded really easily in the last week. Climbing the stairs is a major feat. This is weird for me, because I’m not in top physical condition, but I’m not overweight or anything, so I don’t understand.

Are any of these related somehow? What do you think is going on? I’m really confused, and I don’t want to go to the doctor if there is nothing really overly wrong with me because I’m really uncomfortable going to the doctor. Does anyone know how I can fix any of these issues? or know why they are happening?

Sorrows Become Me

I remember clearly
Long ago and far away
You kissed my cheek tenderly
Whispered words I can’t say

You held me waiting
For my words to ring yours true
Caught just a breath away
Those words I’d surely rue

‘Good night,’ was my answer
To the love you’d expressed
Hurt you seemed
But I could expect nothing less

‘Good night…’ you said in sorrow
As you then turned to leave
Those words hammered in my ears
Demanding for release

I love you… I love you
More than life could know
I love you with all I could love you
But for fate, I could not show

I remember your soft sway
As you turned at your door
You smiled reverently then
And set my heart to soar

In that smile
Your love touched my soul
Silent promise
For my love untold

Years came slowly
In the warmth of your life
For every moment I cherished
Even times of strife

Though still caught by fear
Of what fate should do
If I so much as muttered
My dear, I love you…

I love you with all I could love you
And dare not utter a word
For fear the fates will hear me
And take you away for sure

‘I love you,’ you murmured
Soft words against my ear
Sleep then enfolded you
And I hugged you oh, so near

Each rise and fall against me
The beating of your heart
Love so amazing
But fate had its part

I watched you sleep beside me
The joy beyond mere words
Could fate really take you?
Could love be assured?

Soft rhythmic breathing
Fear overwhelmed by joy
I uttered it so silently
Fate heard not a noise

And surely as the days went by
And fate never stirred
Love, I thought, had made it through
Three little words…

I love you…
Dear God,
I love you…
And fate heard the lot

I love you with all I could love you
Those words… I never should
For fate readily heard me
And took you away for good

But even now, I remember
The smile that lit your eyes
Those words that I whispered
As I hugged you to my side

A smile so radiant
At my love spoken true
You were so elated
And thought you broke me through

But, dear one…

The moment I saw you
To this day today
I’ve loved you forever
Forever and always…

I love you with all I could love you
And should not have uttered a word
Fate so cruel and timeless
On those words are cursed

I find now I can whisper those words more freely
For I whisper those words alone
White rose in hand, I stare at your name
In the pillar made of stone…

simple question about cholesteatomas.?

ok in 2005 i was told i have a colesteatoma in my right ear. well i had the surgery to have it removed and the 2nd one to have my ear rebuilt. now my question is, tinnitus is a common side effect and lucky me i have it. it was just random but now all i hear is my heart beating in it and the sound is as if someone is blowing into my ear. i have never regained my hearing fully and i don’t know whats wrong. please someone familiar with cholesteatomas please help.

Hearing your heartbeat in your head..no its not coming from my ears.Its outside my ears. I have always been aware of my heartbeat since i was a child..guess the way my body is designed but the last six months are so scarey and the doctor vascular specalist ent said there is nothing I can do about it.. unless i want to have surgery to find what the problem is. and that was dangerous.He saw no further reason to persue anything.No symptoms of anything wrong. blood pressure good and all was well except this.It seems to be when my ears are stopped up the most.. some days its almost bearable and doesn't really bother me but other days I can hear every burp,and sound my heart makes..it worries me although I have found there is nothing wrong with my heart. Its like a form of tinnitus..You have to live with it..I already have a cardiac neurosis to start with and being brought ear to head with it everyday just makes me ill..its causing me to have paranoia and worries me..What can I do ..anyone?

Did I have a near death experience?

OK so this has happened like 3 or 4 times in my sleep. I go to sleep than like in the early morning I wake up but I start feeling these weird vibrations and extreme pressure all over my body and then I start flouting upwards into ether white light or a dark tunnel like this and I hear a weird noise like a very loud ringing noise like in my ears or something.

But then I snap out of it and my heart is racing..pounding faster than ever before and I'm full of adrenalin, an wounder what just happened.

Was this a near death experience that I had in my sleep or is it something else like a weird sleep disorder?

My heart breaks when I have to stand by and witness my daughter battling to cope with the ear ringing! That isn't the worst though, because she battles to get to sleep her general health is also starting to suffer. It appears to me that as she is always so tired and anxious, she can't sleep for long and always seems to pick up almost every germ that is going around. Can this be because of her tinnitus? Where can I get a tinnitus treatments right now.

My heart breaks when I have to stand by and watch my gran battling to cope with ear ringing! The tinnitus is not the worst of it though, because she struggles to sleep her general health is also starting to suffer. It seems that as she is always so tired and anxious, she doesn't get to sleep for long and nowdays seems to catch every infection that is going around. My theory is that this be resulting from the tinnitis? Where can I get a tinnitus treatment for her.

My heart breaks when I have to watch my Mom battling to cope with the ringing noses in her ears! That is not the worst though, as she find it hard to fall asleep her overall health is also starting to suffer. It appears to me that because she is always so irratable and anxious, she doesn't get to sleep much and always seems to catch virtually every sickness that is doing the rounds. Is this be related to her tinnitis? I am searching for a tinnitus cure right now.

Over the past 2 years I have become really allergic to my cat…the problem is that im one of those people who are in love with their pets and spoil them to no end, so i still let her sleep on my bed…i take benadryll 2/3 times a day but its starting to wear off, and im up all night blowing my nose and my ears are always itching…
is this bad for my health in the long run? i realize its stupid but I just dont have the heart to throw my cat off of my bed. I change my sheets as frequently as possible.
Also, is there anything else I could do to help at home? I heard vitamin C helps, is that true?
thanks

It's called Pulsatile tinnitus & I could not find an answer, today I found out that if you clean your ears with q-tips you are pushing water in & it gets behind your ear drum & causes bacteria to grow, also if you use things like paper clips to scratch your ears it leaves small tears & when you get water in your ears that makes it worse & why is it that your heart beat in your ears seems louder than ? Is it possibly from the build up of fluid in there & how do you get it out ?
I have been to an ENT specialist & had all kinds of test but nothing showed. My ears itch a lot & I have made the huge mistake of itching them with a a long twisted paper clip..bad idea, that may of caused something.

Tinnitus traded for headaches ?

I have had pulsatile tinnitus in my right ear for over 2 years, (it' your heart beat heard loud in your ear)some mornings I wake up with a headache across my forehead, on those mornings my ear is quiet, had my sinus checked & they are fine. Been to an ENT & my dr. had lots of tests & they can't explain it either. My blood pressure is fine. I wonder if it's my neck ? It all started after my chiropractor adjusted my neck 2 years ago, he says no, but I still wonder. Anyone else have any ideas ?
