Uneven Ear Pressure and Voice Echo in Left Ear

bukwurm · Nov 12, 2009, 10:14 AM

I currently have vadar syndrome and I found it its due to my allergies. The sinus infection in my nose spread to my ears, my left ear has an echo and my right ear aches I have sinus fluid in my middle ear and I'm sure its causing the echo. My advice is to take anything that will relieve allergy sinus dripping or an antibiotic for sinus infections or a decongestant. Sudafed works so will allerx pack or zpack which are prescription drugs. Just go to the doctor theyll give you something for your sinus condition. Also get tested for allergies. I am four times the normal high allergic to almost everything. Allergy shots are one answer but if they offer you something more natural and earthy id take it rather than the shots.

I have the same thing! My mother works for an ENT and has yet to figure out what it is. It's the most annoying thing and often times leads to a headache by the end of the day. I've been suffering with it for 6 years, and I'm only 23. If anyone has any tips on how to fix this it would be amazing so I don't have to spend the rest of my life listening to myself breath!

I have rad that decongestants are not the answer, if anything you need to block yourself up a bit. I have also read that this problem occurs in pregnancy. Mine started at six months pregnant, although I did get of a flight arund the same tine it started with popped ears and sneezed violently holding my nose and it really hurt. I'm not sure which started it but I've had the baby now and it's still here. I'm a teacher and it really affects my ability to do my job, as well as making everyday life miserable. People often ask me why I am talking loudly but I can't tell how loud I am, I feel like darth vadar too! I have found that while I have been on maternity, lying down on that side helps but obviously we can't all lie down all day! Anyone got any other answers? My accupuncturist has tried his best but it has made no difference.

I woke up Saturday with fullness in my right ear, Echo, and everything seems super loud. I can not pop my right ear and when I cover my left ear my right ear seems too be partially deaf.. Please help anyone.

You all are definitely talking about PET....Patulous Eustachian Tube. If the echo goes away when you hold your head upside down that's a sure sign. I don't think it's as rare as people think. There aren't too many treatments available. The first thing to try are drops called Patulend that you can order online. They help build up the tissue so the tube will close normally again.

I worked in food service for many years so I also hold in my sneezes. I have had the same problem with the echo in my ears of my own voice while speaking but for me it comes and goes. It seems to be more present when I am experiencing higher stress levels or when I am feeling under the weather. Sometimes blowing my nose will "un-pop" my ears and other times there is nothing that helps... I would love to find out what this is and how to stop it.

Yesterday I experienced the same type echo you have described for the first time. It is extremely annoying; especially when watching TV.. Certain sounds (mostly higher voices or high-pitched tones) echo almost as if I'm trying to listen to the same program on two separate TVs but they are milliseconds off of each other. Very annoying. I was hoping it was just some water left in my ear from the shower, but it sounds like it may be more... By the way, when you contracted the sinus infection, were you put on an antibiotic?

Recently I'm also having similar symtoms to all of you, one of my friend who had this problem told me that her dr gave her medicine and she's been taking it for almost 2 years now, she also said her Dr advised that she should reduce her salt intake and drink more water. So for the past few days I try to reduce the salt intake and drink MORE/alot of water and it seems help!

hope it won't come back that echo in my ears and the Dart Vador's breathing :P
