Suggest Treatment For High Pulse Rate

I have been having ringing in my ears for about a month now. I tried ear drops to remove possible wax build-up with no help. Today I tried to donate blood but I wasn't allowed due to a high pulse rate. My blood pressure was normal. I have never been told I had a high pulse rate. I am a 58 yr old male in pretty good health

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Tinnitus or ringing in the ear is not related to heart rate .you will need to see an ENT surgeon to get a cure for tinnitus. Please mention your heart rate and BP to know exactly what it is like.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Cardiologist Dr. Ilir Sharka's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I would explain that a high pulse rate could be related to different possible disorders: chronic anemia, thyroid gland dysfunction, an electrolyte imbalance, etc.

Coming to this point, I would recommend consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam and some tests:
- complete blood count for anemia
- thyroid hormone levels for thyroid gland dysfunction
- blood electrolytes for possible imbalances.

Hope to have been helpful!

Wishing good health.
