    there is an artery that goes up the side of your head.  If you are having pressure in your middle ear than this can cause you to hear your heart beat.  Sounds like a bad ear infection and zpack never touched mine.  I was always given cipro.  I have also had swelling in the temple area when having an ear infection and also have had the back side of my ear swell also.  You need to go back to your ENT and get this checked out.  If this doesnt clear up then I would go to a Neurotologist which is above an ENT and deals with disease of the ear.  they are hard to find so do your research on them.  I had to travel 150 miles away to find one.
