> I don't think this is a med side effect, but I am hoping someone can tell me if I need to go to the doctor or just tell me what this is. Last Monday, I started experiencing a what is like a pressure in my right ear - but it is not a severe pressure. It is hard to describe. It is like I can feel my pulse -- but it is not "beating" at the same rate as my heart rate. Some times it is slower, some times faster. And it is not always regular. I tried taking a decongestant last night, but that didn't seem to effect it at all. Earlier this week I had my blood pressure checked when I was experiencing this and it was in the normal range. I know that I am "crazy" (meant with all sarcasm!), but this is really weird. I tried webmd and my home encyclopedia, and cannot find anything on this. Any ideas are appreciated.

AKc,

This is a little of a stretch, but are you taking any Neurontin? I get something like that if I go up very high on the N. We found out it was a *spasm* in the eustachian tube that connects up to your ear canal. It is like a "thumping" that is periodic. I would notice it if I took more than 300mg at one time (about an hour or two later).
