Question about my head.

[7thStranger]

I have had this ringing in my ear or whooshing sound for 2 years almost. I have fevers almost daily. Its basically focused on the left side of my head. Also in my neck, like its left over from having viral meningitis. Could this still be going on with me? What is causing this?

BTW, i believe the whooshing noise is from my brain swelled on that side.

I had ringing in my ears continuously for over a year.  I have also had the whooshing sounds.  The neuro told me that the brain and ear are not connected so it is coming from the ear????....

I almost always have the ringing in my ears. I have a CFS / M.E. diagnosis.

I have never been told it was from the brain swelling that i remember but i am guessing it is. I only have swelling on that side and only have whooshing on that side. I belive i have some infection under my skin, maybe dura matter? I am not sure. I will ask the nuro doc Tues. My fevers seem to start out on my left side also.

not that this helps you but for the past two weeks approx. i have had a constant whooshing in my right ear.. along with random spikes of pain. if i push up on the area around my ear it slightly eases... i have NO CLUE as to why this started or what to do about it... if u find out anything, please let me know? Thank you and Best Wishes

One thing i believe it is would be the lateral ventrical in my brain is swelled. I had another test called the Cisternogram? with nuclear dye. it came back ok they say. But I am sicker than ever and near suicide.

hey, i just went to the Dr today for my ear... She said that she is pretty sure i have Meniere's Disease, but she want's to try me on a nasal mist first to see if it helps. She also said that i'm not allowed to look it up anyplace else than web md but you should check it out n see if it fits what u have. u should maybe think about getting an MRI too.. Feel Better hun, and Good Luck!
