A member asked:

Ringing in ears for years, getting worse. i can hear over sound sometimes and i can hear heart beat when laying down on side at times. is it avm?

Brain AVM : It is unlikely that an intracranial (brain) arteriovenous malformation (AVM) is causing tinnitus as this is an uncommon symptom. Am MRI of the brain is a good screening test to determine if you have an AVM
