Does anyone experience tinnitis with migraines? My doctor says it isn’t typical.

  1. Hi there , Thanks for reaching out & for your question. Tinnitus can certainly be a common symptom of migraine. As you wait for others to possibly share their experience with this frustrating symptom, I wanted to share this article with you. https://migraine.com/blog/tinnitus/. Hope this helps to put your mind at ease that you are not alone in experiencing this! Take good care. -Joanna (Migraine.com Team)

    1. Yes! My neurologist said the same thing, it is not typical and had my hearing tested for menieres (I tested negative). I’ve realized that doctors don’t know everything, so when a doctor says something like that to me, now I just log it as information and make decisions for myself. I still believe I have migraine but I try to manage my symptoms based on what I know of myself, what drugs work, which don’t. My ears pretty much ring constantly but it doesn’t mean much.

      1. Thanks for answering my question. I love my migraine specialist, but sometimes I don’t know if she quite believes me when discussing symptoms. The Botox injections she gives seem to be helping me.

        1. Hi! I have tinnitus, and i read somewhere that is had some correlation to people with migraines tho.
