I have been hearing my pulse in my ear for over two months.I went to the doctor that said it had to do with my ears.She set me up with an ent in about two weeks...She said I had partial blockage in one ear and full in the other ..She cleaned on ear out..and stopped.She was going to recommend a antihistiamean for me but because of tachocardia I couldn't use it..So instead she set me up for an ent.I have been having the sound in my ear for a long time..I was afraid of artery blockage and maybe even anyurism ..but she said it was due to ears..So I believe her but it makes me really anxious.I have been living with it off and on and one day I woke and it wasn't there.I didn't want to get to excited because I was afraid if I said it went away ..That it would come back so I took a wait and see attitude..Well not only did it come back it came back so strong it sounds like I am laying my ear on someone's chest and can hear a full whoom boom...just like wearing a steoscope..I don't get it.. if its just ears could it get worse or should it be the same or what? Could it be an anyurism getting worse.. or am I just in the same situtation and its just more obvious?? If you know anything about any of this please let me know..? I am so worried and I know most of you probably think its because I am upset and it causes my blood pressure to rise ,like working out..but really my heart rate and blood pressure are normal and I am calm...so what is going on? PLease advise..?

Update for going to the hospital for pulse in ears,
I gathered as much courage as I could almost
coming unglued as the time for my appointment
neared.I went to sleep late as usual and allowed
for very little time to gather strength again in
the morning.I got in my vehicle and drove
30 miles to the hospital and parked way out
in the parking area and walked in to find that
the doctors I was looking for were on the 2nd
floor.I was rigid as a steel pipe but was still
doing ok.I was tested for hearing..Perfect,
tested for tumors…no tumors..no infections
no fluid in ears , a little wax but very little,
no cancers, no lesions,no blockages, no
bruits no nothing. Diagnoses was loss of 35lbs
over the time it took for me to start hearing
my pulse rate..causing loss of padding also
causing shift of tubes nearer to artery also
TMJ causing shift in muscles and nerves
and vascular sections close to the inner
ear.Complete three hour test ,checkup
and blood pressure spiking but went
back down to normal by end of
visit .Cause of pulse in ears surmised
was loss of weight,altitude change
and stress.Doctor said there was no blockage
of arteries ,no tumors,and if I could live
with the noise,which I have lived with
tinnitus for almost 20 years I think that
eventually my brain will come to not
hear this anymore or it could go away.
Doctor also said that he could order
scans but they would be negative and there
was nothing that pointed to a reason for
any scans..In short…It is all in my head,
He said I would probably live another day
to make another post lol…Thank you for your
reply to me and help.I made it through the
doctor and for me that was the hardest part.
