Dear Pat, I too have tinnitus, both kinds, the hissing and the pulsatile. (The former came from my Pug yapping in my ears, which did damage to the inner ears.) It`s annoying, but I can live with it. It is the latter which is driving me CRAZY!!! That horrible grinding, pulsing noise in my right ear makes it difficult to sleep. I can turn it down by sticking my shoulder into my neck to turn off much of the blood flow through the jugular vein, but it doesn`t last long. Fortunately, I discovered that a spritz of Nasonex (an allergy med.) in the right nostril will ease it; apparently it lessens the swelling on that side, so I can finally sleep. (I`m wondering if the large thyroid nodules I have on that side are the cause of the noise. My ENT doesn`t know for sure. He wants to remove that half of the gland; I`d be glad to have it done IF it will stop the noise!) I hope this`ll help! Marshalee
