Pulse in ear

Hi all when i lye down i can hear my heart beat in either my ear or my head not like when you put you hand over your ear but a deep thumping sound .not all the time maybe 3 times a week but it drives me mad and cant sleep when it happens . Blood pressure is good its always been around 130/82 and pulse 60- 70 ...tinnitus sufferer and anxiety sufferer.... does anyone else suffer and seen a doctor about it . Anxiety goes through the roof when i see doctors ...

I quite often hear my heart beating, particularly when I am in bed.  I just put up with it, as I have no pain,  it is just annoying. I have suffered from mild tinnitus off and on for as long as I can remember.

This could be related to patulous eustachian tube. Some people report hearing their bodily functions, including heartbeat. 

Thank you both for you replys . Got to find out what causes this

I remember in the nineteen seventies series Kung Fu with David Carradine, Grasshopper says to Master Po "How come you can hear your heart beat?" and Master Po replies "How come you can't?" I suppose since then it has not worried me! 

Hi I have this problem also it started when I had a tympanoplasty done on my ear. I found out that it is a form of tinnitus. For me it comes and goes but when I do get it it's usually at night laying down.
