Aspirin

I have to take one aspirin a day for my heart. Do any of you take aspirin daily and if so, does it affect your T?

A big hug to you all,

I have been told by ENT is does, maybe not that small amount. When I was having panic attacks and every disease was going thro my head I stupidly took extra asprin thing it was heart related. I have since cut down to 1 baby asprin and think my T is better.

My pharmacist said aspirin is one culprit that causes T but once discontinued T will subside. Have you tried to stop the aspirin and see if T subsides?

I have been taking a 325mg aspirin once a day for several years. I stopped taking it for one month to see it it would help the T. It had no effect.

Thank you for your input. I appreciate it.
I think I may as my doc if I can go down to the smaller dose and see what happens. Maybe nothing, but I need to see.

God bless,

This German guy said NORMAL doses of aspirin, Tylenol, and non-alcoholic beer actually helped his T! It's a very interesting read, for what it's worth.

Doctors have told me the same thing about asprin being bad for T. You might have to weigh both sides of this issue. Heart vs T. My Doc. also said that potassium (spelled wrong) was bad for Tinnitus. I said it does. Then the doc. said in your case you must take potassium. I take another drug that causes a persons potassium to drop, so sometimes we have to just choose the best of a bad situation. One thing I would do, is to call my ent and tell him or her about the asprin, and if he disagrees call the heart doc. There might be something else that can be subtatuted for the asprin. Easier said then done, getting doctors to agree though. You can also get alot of information from your druggest. Frank

You are so right Frank. I will give my ENT a call and just see what he says.

Thank you I appreciate your suggestion.

A big hug to you,

the small dosage shouldn't affect you-

usually aspirin associated with t involves people who were taking high dosages for a period of time

popping them like candy

    Is anyone here allergic to Sulfa that is currently taking Diamox? I have been diagnosed with IH now for almost 2 years. I am allergic to Sulfa drugs meaning that my throat will swell up so my Neurologist put me on Topamax. I was suffering from major loud whoosing noises and the topamax helped that but everyday I still hear those mainly between 6 - 12 pm. I am at my wits end and have not went...
