Tinnitus

[Guest guest]

Over the past few months I have developed a constant " stream of noise "

in my ears. While sometimes the " volume " is less, sometimes it's more

and very distracting when in a quiet environment. I've had one doctor

tell me it's because my blood pressure was too high. I have a BP

machine at home and take my pressure everyday due to hypertension.

Many days when the noise is high, my BP is " normal. "

I saw a doctor last week who looked in my throat, nose and ears and

ordered a hearing test for next week. Does anyone in the group have

this problem ? I've been on Oxycontin, Ativan and Xanax for several

months prior to becoming aware of this condition. I can't say it's

getting worse, but it bothers me that it isn't getting better. Thanks

for any input.
