Can Your Blood Pressure Cause Tinnitus?

[@anangryranger]

35 years ago I awoke to almost zero hearing in my right ear. However, a very loud ringing replaced my once good hearing in that ear. Over the years I've tried dozens of different "treatments" to ease that annoying ringing to no avail. I finally just gave up. You don't need to be a rocket scientist to figure out there's no cure. Further, I've heard dozens of "causes" that all are different. No one appears to know, and we're told many different things. I don't believe anyone really knows why and they're often guessing. Bottle line, I just live with it. It'll stop ringing when I quit living.

Useful video Rachael as those of us with hearing loss & tinnitus do experience variable levels of tinnitus depending on circumstances. I also experience a slight increases and decreases in hearing as well, with my impaired ear either noting more dull / muted or slightlt more able to pick out wider frequencies. Is this variability reported by some of your other patients and is there an explanation to this - may make another interesting video?

Interesting video. I have noise induced tinnitus since 1982. I also have a heart murmur, high blood pressure, sleep apnea and anxiety issues. I also take blood pressure medication. I do notice my tinnitus gets louder under stressful situations and do not stay hydrated or eat regularly. I guess i need be more observant of what factors i can control to make my tinnitus more manageable.

I have realized even exercise makes my tinnitus temporarily worse. I was guessing blood pressure.

Why are there not any clinic that focus solely on tinnitus and in helping people pen point what the root cause is because a lot of people are suicidal because of it. Me being one.
