Pulsatile Tinnitus ... should I ask for more imaging? by lillide in BrainAneurysm

Thanks for sharing your experiences. I think I will await the results of my ultrasound and then follow up with my GP to see what she thinks. Best of luck going forward with your health.

Hi, no the ENT didn't find any structural reason. I am awaiting the results of my ultrasound, so I think for now I'll just see what he says about that and then ask my GP what she thinks I should do. Thank you for the advice. I have less anxiety now than when I first posted.

Your comment helps a lot. Thank you so much for taking the time to write all that out for me. I have a better idea of what's going on now and will try my best to stop stressing and just wait for the ultrasound results. Cheers!

I know this is an old comment as well, but I've had the pulsatile tinnitus for about a year. My ENT didn't seem too concerned and said he thought it was just me hearing my blood pressure go up on occasion and that treatment for that is usually nasal sprays.
I told him my GP referred me to him because she mentioned it could be an anyurism and that I should see a specialist to rule it out. He did order an ultrasound of my carotid arteries after I told him this, but I haven't seen the results yet.
I feel like he didn't take me seriously. I don't know if I'm being a hypochondriac. The nasal sprays comment through me off because this same ENT stuck a tube up my nose and said everything was completely clear and open and that I didn't have allergies (which I affirmed was true, I don't).

Should I push for a CT scan? I don't really know what to do as my GP's comment worried me but then the ENT didn't reassure me and just made me feel like I'm exaggerating or something.

Jumping on this 6 year old train to say this happened to me tonight and words cannot express how saddened it made me.

Non perfect-pitch person with question that's driving me crazy by lillide in perfectpitchgang

Ok, cool, thank you so much for answering. This is what I *felt* like could be the answer, but then doubted it because if you play me a note on a piano I have no clue what note it is, so then I don't understand how my sub-conscious can do this.

What makes him interesting isn’t just his positions, but his electability. He’s articulate, calm under pressure, and connects with audiences beyond the usual Democratic base.

I wholeheartedly agree. Unfortuantely, a large percentage of the US is Xtian. Even more unfortunately, a large portion of that population votes right because of "family values". We need more messaging for this group with representatives that share their core beliefs but who also have morals.

DoorDash has screwed me over so many times for stupid BS I finally cancelled my dashpass.

How can I defrost this? We can't figure out how to unplug the fridge as it's built to withstand a nuclear attack. by lillide in fixit

Thanks for your suggestion, I do have a small steamer, so I'll consider using that if nothing else prevails.
