levemir and tinitus...??

Hi gaz,

I was diagnosed with type 1 last week on Thursday and I too have tinnitus, since a year ago.
My tinnitus is different to yours - I have pulsatile tinnitus, which means I can hear my heart beat in my ear constantly.

I asked my doctor wether they thought it was related, but they did not. (will let you know if this changes)

Sorry I can't really help you, but I thought you might like to know you aren't alone!

As for your tinitus, I've found doctors to be terribly unhelpful about it - telling people to listen to music and live with it... My advise is to keep bugging the doctors and to drown out the tinitus when sleepiing - put a fan on, or music or sleep with tv on or white noise
Incredibly sucky, but it makes it a little more bearable.

Hope your tinitus goes away,

Rosie

If you can hear your heart beat in your ears you may be de-hydrated?

I shouldn't be - I've just been rehydrated via drip at the hospital! It was noisy whilst I was on that too.
