A member asked:

Any link btween ringing in ears after diagnosis and treatment of papillary thyroid cancer? evaluated by ent and all was normal. on synthroid (thyroxine) too..

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely: I have been practicing endocrinology for over 30 years and have never seen an association between ringing in ears (tinnitus) and thyroid cancer, or being on Synthroid (thyroxine). The most common cause for tinnitus is hearing loss.
