Hearing problems after THR
Posted , 3 users are following.
Hi,
Ever since my hip replacement, I have been able to 'hear' mu heartbeat in my right ear. It is only apparent when it is quiet like when going to sleep, the TV masks it.
Has anyone else had this?
Regards
Graham

I wonder if you have a build up of ear wax? Is there a history of hypertension, also. Might be an idea to have this checked out.

I am at day 26, THR left side, 63 year old male. Happily married for 40 years.
Ex Motorcycle rider (2300cc Triumph Rocket III), hence the nickname.

I have the same thing but then I did have it b4 the op when I have a few scotches or wine in the evening. It is a lot worse now and is probably due to the blood thinners that we take I know it's not having a drink for you cos I think you thought that you couldn't have a drink with the tabs. Oh dear all that wasted will power gone to waste or should it be

Not worried about giving up alcohol for 6 weeks - I am in control, not the alcohol in control of me.
I am hoping it's the thinners that is causing it, it comes and goes.
