@A MyHeartDiseaseTeam Member I had this a number of years ago, some point after bypass surgery. I was referred to a specialist for that. They did an MRA. They didn't find anything, but the weird thing was, it disappeared as quick as it started, it disappeared without anything being done. I agree, it would be best to get it checked. I wish you the best.

What you're describing sounds like pulsatile tinnitus, which is a whooshing or pounding sound that syncs with your heartbeat. This type of sound in your ears can be related to blood flow changes and cardiovascular health.
If you're experiencing this symptom, it's important to discuss it with your doctor, as they may need to evaluate your blood pressure or other cardiovascular conditions that could be causing this sensation. There are several strategies that may help manage this symptom:
• Medication adjustments - if high blood pressure is the cause, your doctor may modify your medications
• Sound generators or white noise machines that create soothing background sounds
• Relaxation techniques like mindfulness meditation
• Environmental enrichment with music or nature sounds
• Counseling techniques to help cope with the distraction
If you notice this symptom along with chest pain, shortness of breath, dizziness, or unexplained sweating, seek immediate medical attention as these could indicate a serious heart condition.
