Not all the time but occasionally in quiet moments I can hear a pulsing in my ear that matches my heartbeat. Been able to hear it since I was a child. Mostly it’s localised to one ear and generally it will quieten/ stop after a short while.

I hear it frequently too and bp is low-normal. I can hear it when my ear is laying on a pillow, and I also hear my ear moving with the pulse against the fabric, not just hearing the pulse on its own. This will be in the middle of the night (i.e. no activity, low resting heartrate). But I can also sometimes hear it when I’m sitting upright. I hear it after doing cardio, which may be normal. The ear wiggling thing against the pillow irritates me tho because it keeps me awake and I prefer side sleeping.
Maybe I’m just a busybody and you’re fine, but get a blood test for low iron if you haven’t lately.
Yeah, chronically low. Technically just barely within normal, but too low to donate. I’ve got other things going on, and see my doc every 3-6 months (with labwork). I guess it’s just normal enough to not be fiddled with now yet still annoying.
Glad you’re keeping tabs on it.
