I was given a CT scan with IV contrast that was ordered by a nurse practioner because she thought I had swollen lymph nodes. I told her I was fine and had no problems of any kind. In the hours and days following the CT scan I developed soreness and tightness in my throat with difficulty swallowing. Then, as if someone flipped a switch loud, high pitched, shrill ringing started in both my ears. By day four post contrast infusion severe aching, burning pain in both ears with the pain traveling down both sides of my neck from the base of my ear canals started. I have seen my doctor and an ENT specialist and none of them want to acknowledge the fact that all of my symptoms started after the contrast was given. The ENT even asked if I had ever worked in a job where I was subjected to loud noises. I had never had ringing or pain in my ears before the contrast. I may have had two headaches in a year. Now, I have constant ringing and pain in my ears with daily heafaches. It has been six weeks and counting since the CT. Does anyone have any solutions or have heard of similar cases where this has happened? Any trearment options?
