Can you hear it?

I can hear it!

One of the symptoms I see complained about the most on the IH message boards is pulsatile tinnitus. Most times it is experienced as a wooshing sound in the ears that is in sync with your pulse. Some people experience this all the time and for some it is intermittent. Luckily for me it has been intermittent and I have not experienced it since I started the acetazolamide.

This type of tinnitus is caused by a disturbance of blood flow which can be heard in the ears. I can tell you from experience that it stinks.
