HER2 Support Group Forums - View Single Post - "Thumping" in Ear? Can it be serious? Does A/C cross into the brain?

I don't have thumpiing in my ear but for the last two weeks I have an echo in my right ear. Everytime or almost everytime I talk I hear an echo of what I've said in my right ear. I have an appointment with oncologist Thursday and am going to ask her about it. Aslo A/C does not cross the brain blood barrier.
