Brenda
So sorry to hear about your dad.

I have some "ringing" knocking at times and I know I have read others have experienced this as well. Not sure what the cause is. It has gone away so far.

I get 'tingling' in the back of my neck. not sure if it is muscle spasms. Feels more like the fuzzy feeling you get when your feet are going to sleep cause you cut off the circulation to them. I have talked to the doc about this tingly numby feeling in my neck. I also have a spot on my back that does this. The doc said it was a side effect of prednisone I think that is the cop out answer when they don't know what is causing the symptoms I describe! LOL what do you do?
I think I can associate some of this to being a bit tired. I tend to get these symptoms when I have overdone things and need to rest.

Hope this helps! Thoughts and prayers your way in your time of sorrow! Take care of yourself!

I am so sorry to hear of your loss, Brenda. I will pray for you in the difficult days ahead. Please accept my sympathy.

I have that but I don't think it is related to PM. I got it when I got TMJ. Although the TMJ is about resolved, the "knock" still happens when I yawn or open my mouth wide. Do you think that is the same?

I wrote on your other post but I will repeat here. I am so sorry to hear about your Father. That is really tough. Know you are in my thoughts and I am sending healing thoughts to you and your family.

Dear Brenda. My deepest sympathy at the loss of your father. You sure have a heavy load right now. You are in my thoughts and prayers Brenda. Autumm

Sorry to hear about the passing of your farther. I don't have knocking in my ear but I do sometimes get ringing in my ear. Haven't had a muscle spasm in my head since I stared on the Prednisone and stared eating more things with potassium in them. Hope you find out why this is happening soon. Good luck!

Brenda, I have all of your brain symptoms, but I do not have the pain that you experience. I have the knocking sounds in my ears when I roll over on my right side. I was told those sounds were my heart beats. I have regurgitating heart valves so it is not a steady beat. As a musician, the lack of steady beat makes this more annoying! The loud knocking wakes me up at night. My ears also hurt like they are melting away.

The rear of my head gets very hot. I get warm flashes frequently. I also have electrical zaps in my jaws. I know DM can cause conduction issues and I think that is what is happening to me.

I will be seeing the neurologist in July. I will let you know what he finds.

Brenda, I would like to add that you are in my prayers. You have my deepest sympathy over the loss of your father.

I know as sisters in Jesus Christ, we can be confident of seeing our loved ones again. I know your dad gets to have dinner with King David!

I am the resurrection and the life; He who believes in me shall live even if he dies." John 11:25.

Whosoever believeth in Christ shall never perish, but have eternal life. John 3:16.

You are in my prayers as you move forward.

Thank you all for your prayers and comforting words regarding my father. I have gone online to see if anyone has posted anything about knocking in the ears and all I found was others asking the same question but no answers. It isn't a ringing. It sounds like two wooden balls on a rope that are knocking against each other. I hear them as I am talking and it gets louder as I try to talk over the knocking. It seems that everyday brings about something new. I had a shot in my knee because it has athritis and the 1st time I didn't feel any pain and it worked right away. This time I thought she was going to break my kneecap because she wa spressing down so hard and having such a hard time finding a place to shoot in the med or something. Of course she was not explaining anything to me, only apologizing for the pain that she was causing me. Hours later and I am still in pain. For the 1st time in a long time I was able to truly write something in my journal, wven though I had a lot of misspelled words. I will never give in but I am truly getting tired of fighting this stupid battle.
