    Hi all
    I am currently in remission after a stem cell transplant in Sept 2013. For the last 6 months I have felt a pressure and loud whistling in my left ear. My new GP says she thinks it could be an after effect of the chemotherapy. Has anyone else experienced anything similar?
    Thanks Chris

    Not whistling but tinnitus in one ear and my hearing has definitely got worse.

    Thanks Carol

    Do you think it has anything to do with your treatment at all?

    Kind regards

    I blame all new symptoms on the treatment, cos then I don’t have to admit maybe it is to do with growing older…..65 now!

    I have quite a loud whistle/ rustling sound more pronounced in left than right ear. It is, I believe a possible side affect of Velcade which I was on for a while. I previously had a slight noise, but then I worked in a canning factory for nearly 30 years. Can be quite annoying at times.
    Best Wishes to all, Jeff

    Thankyou Carol and Jeffrey.
    The noise is much worse and I am waiting to see an ENT specialist so I will let you know how I get on

    Kind regards

    I have whistling in my ears too, hadn’t realised that the velcade may  be responsible , I have not worked or used anything loud over the years so may be it is a side effect.  I will ask when I am next at a consultation.  Worth investigating.  Thanks for that info Christine.
