I wanted to mention that I take atenolol....I seem to recall you mentioned recently that you take it too. I've been doing a little research on it lately because I'm considering going off. I have seen a lot of posts by atenolol users complaining of tinnitis. Hmmm...coincidence or no? I actually found a couple of websites that list atenolol as " ototoxic " , which I guess means poisonous to the ears, but it's weird because it is never listed as a side effect on the prescribing info.

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 Kendee, a nasal spray will not solve this problem. This is a kidnry and liver problem because of the drugs. Get these products: HY-C (from www.naturessunshine.co.uk/) Liver Essentials (from www.swansonsvitamins.com) Begin with one-third of the normal dose. Build up to 2/3, the whole doses as written on the bottles. C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 1, 2006 Report Share Posted October 1, 2006 It's fine to take with other supplements. tinnitus Jeepers! I am such a ditz! I cannot figure out how to reply to the messages anymore! LOL , in an attempt to reply to your message, I may have forwarded a copy of your reply to be posted. Sorry! :-( Anyway, thanks for your reply, I will check into those products. Does this mean that the fluid/pressure in my ears is not from allergies, but also from kidney/liver problems? I assume that I can take these products along with my multi-vitamin/mineral, magnesium and Vitamin C? Thanks, Kendee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 My husband has tinnitus and it is quite bothersome at times. He's been to an ear specialist who diagnosed his problem. He has so many other problems that this is by far the least. If your bothered by it when you sleep, keep a radio next to your bed at a very low setting. When driving, play the radio - do anything that will drown out the noise in your ears.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 Hi Steve, I have that problem a lot. It feels like background noise in my head. I forgot what my doctor called it. I don't know if it's me having high blood pressure because I normally have really low blood pressure. But, I do know mine gets worse when my pain gets worse. I hope they can find an answer for you! Love, Becky in SD Steve wrote: Over the past few months I have developed a constant " stream of noise " in my ears. 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. " Does anyone in the group have this problem? --------------------------------- Never miss a thing. Make Yahoo your homepage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 I have sounds in my ears alot ! Ha ha got you - err i mean a lot. It comes and goes, and kinda sounds like someone is crinkling up paper. I understood from past posts that it is a dercum's thang. So I just accepted it as one more issue.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2008 Report Share Posted March 1, 2008 The sound in my head reminds me of radio static. Sometimes there are bells and whistles and other times I hear music. Mine was brought on by severe antibiotic toxisity. So yes, medication can cause tinnitus in your ears. Katrena in Kansas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 Hi Steve, my name is , I think this is the second time I'm posting. Your post caught me because I've had a ringing in my ears for about 17 yrs now. Recently it's been getting worse slowly but surely, ever since I started talking Lyrica. I went to specialist a long time ago and he told me I would have to have my jaw broken and reset, due to extensive dental work over the years. I've been suffering from Chronic pain for 4 yrs now. There must be a reaction to the meds also. I take Oxycodone and Duragesic patches amongst a host of others. I take another anti anxiety, Celexa. I would be really interested if you find any answers. i'll keep watching the thread. Hello from Montreal, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 sorry if someone said this also but tylenol/acetaminophen that's in many of the prescription painkillers like Vicodin, darvocet, norco, and such, is known to cause temporary ringing in the ears / tinnitus feeling, I think just temporarily and not permanently though.

Guest guest Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 I have had tinnitus for 20 years. Mine was brought on by loud musice as a teen. Also, I think that i may have inherited it from my dad. Go to tinnitus association.com They have many good articles on it. In my case it is permanent and in both ears. There is no know cure for it. There are options, such as machines that create white noise but to me one is just as bad as the other. I try to ignore it. Sometimes I would like to tare my hair out. Do you have any hearing loss? Usually tinnitus is associated with hearing loss. Cheryl V > > Over the past few months I have developed a constant " stream of noise " > in my ears.
