Tinnitus, anxiety and ADHD-like symptoms
Following frequent episodes of amnesia, including two major episodes where I lost several days, I found memory/auditory processing issues, increased anxiety, insomnia, nausea and vertigo has taken it toll. So I started to research the link between mind and brain. I think it's safe to say many of us -

flutter not fibrillation
Hi all I have paid to see an EP (privately) today who has confirmed 100% I have atrial flutter and no fibrillation? Anyone else just have flutter? He has recommended an ablation to sort it out and told me to stop taking Flecainide which makes me nervous. He says it probably isn’t doing much and could

Sigmoid Sinus Diverticulum
Hello, So I've been suffering from tinnitus since 2022 and from pulsatile tinnitus since 2023. I've been to ENT and had an MRI scan with and without contrast. My results with contrast show that I have a small transverse sinus diverticulum. Which from looking online is a rare vascular disorder. I

Intro
I have had intermittent tinnitus, a low drone head noise, since May 2021 (I think vaccine induced). In Nov 2022 I had microsuction on one ear. In April 2023 I woke up to nonstop static/white noise in my head, high pitched and loud. Has been 24/7 for nearly 10 months. Can hear it over the TV, in the car

My Tinnitus disappeared from the left side of my head for a few minutes.
I was sitting down watching the T V last week when I felt dizzy and light headed, although it worried me. I noticed my Tinnitus disappeared from the left side of my head. I only had the noise in the right side of my head. After a few moments my balance came back and so did the tinnitus across my head

Suddenly, my tinnitus became overbearingly loud in one ear!
Good evening I have had tinnitus for a decade. It has mostly been like a whistling in both ears. Last autumn, I had a severe bout of vertigo and my tinnitus changed around that time. I started to get a popping seeds sound, this went on for a few weeks, then on New Year's Day, I got a loud tuning fork

I can’t live with permanent tinnitus and the regret
what's the title for this? I am guilty of constantly using cotton buds and bobby pins to scratch my ears, which caused an ear infection that led to permanent tinnitus. Now I hear this ringing all the time. I just want to hear silence, and I am sad that I can’t hear silence anymore. I also have anxiety

update on sore Nipple!
so did go to see the Dr who agreed my breasts were quite tricky to diagnose due to the amount of scar tissue from previous mammoplasty - initially felt the tenderness was maybe due to simple fibroadinoma but wasn’t certain - so I was fast tracked to Derriford and my appointment is this afternoon. Interestingly

Pulsing in my head
Hello I went to see my doctor a year ago about this pulsing in my head. I was told I had wax in my ears so I went through the routine with the olive oil but that didn't work. And now I'm trying to cope I'm frustrated as it effects me when I'm trying to sleep also I can't hear in social situations. I

mri without contrast
Hi everyone I was wondering if anyone could advise me about what to do going forward. In February 2023 I woke up one morning and I felt like the whole room was spinning and I was struggling to hear out of my left ear. This happened for over a week. I went to the doctors and they prescribed some antihistamine
