Stress related tinnitus

[peter34uk]

Had ringing in my head/ears for over a week now.

Just been Docs. She could see nothing in my ears and reckons it will go away in a few weeks at most.

Anyone else had this ? & did it indeeed go away??

A bit frustrated so any reasurance would be helpfull.

Hi Peter

A friend and i were just talking tonight regarding the extent of anxiety effecting us pysically.

I have Chronic urticaria where my skin can blister, lips and eyes can swell but no other reason for this other than anxiety.

My friend has a completely different symptom but has no answers for it too.

There is so many ways in which anxiety can effect us that nothing would surprise me now.

I hope you feel better soon hun!
Take care
Lisa

Hi mate. Goning through the same right now. Just had my 3rd Dr appointment and had a hearing test but if its still there in 3wks then a trip to see a ENT specialist required. Mine is just in one ear.

I have had tinnitus since i was 16, i`m 23 on Wednesday, i damaged my ears at a gig when they turned the amps up to a dangerously high level (illegally) but now i don't know if i could live without it, it sounds strange, but its just a part of me now!

Had it for thirty years off and on. It disappears sometimes and then it comes back, but your mind learns to tune it out. Hope you feel better.
