Thinking on it, in my case I would have to say the ear ringing definitely was not related to alcohol intake..it was no different then, than now, when I have no ear ringing.
What was unusual about the time was a chronic lack of sleep..caused by a dog next door that barked almost nonstop.. for years. Still barks, but owner puts him inside at night and is now old and a bit hoarse(not enough!)..thank goodness. So I am unsure if a chronic lack of sleep could casue the ear ringing. At the time I just blamed the dog noise, so I don't know if a persistant loud noise could do it. That's what I put it down to at the time.I have since heard that many who are still hypothyroid and not yet optimised on their thyroid drugs have the exact same ear ringing, or had it before treatment. ..and I did have hypothryoid symptoms back then...
I went to my GP's today to see what notes he had..and guess what, forgot to ask about the ear ringing! What a surprise...sorry, I have this almost non existent short term memory
I did ask about some of my pmeds, but he didn't have a much more notes than me..he did remember the time I came in after I thought a car was speeding straight at side of my car, and then I started shaking ..that's when I gave up the pdrugs, but he hadn't noted it down, sigh.
I'm just trying to piece together things to see if I can form some pattern...
