Antibiotics Helped My Ear, I Think Posted: 08-03-06 22:57pm
Everybody with pulsating ear has said
antibiotics have made their ear worse.
Well, not me. After months of that lousy
heartbeat in my left ear, having been
checked out superficially, I developed
some other sort of infection, cannot
remember what. The doctor gave me
antibiotics for that. After the first
pill, my ear stopped pulsating. I had
had the pulsating for several months
already. It was not real bad, only heard
it at night when quiet. It did not make
me crazy.
I think I initially developed the
pulsating from poking my ear with a match.
My doctor said never put anything in my
ear, not even a q tip, never remove wax.
Then I developed the sound once again, it
went away again.
My third episode with it was recently when
I went swimming. I had a very loud
pulsating this time. I could even hear
it in the day when things were going on.
At night it was loud. Even turning on my
fan could not mask the noise. After 1
1/2 days it went away. I went swimming
again, with much intrepeditation, but I
did not get that pulse again, but I did
keep my head above water. :idea:
