Did you ever figure anything out about this?  Both my ears were this way all through high school and into college.  One day I had my ears cleaned out (with forced water) and one of them STOPPED this sensation.  That was about 10 years ago and now the ear that still rattles is driving me crazy!

Does anyone know what might cause a rattling sensation in the

ear?  At certain frequencies and intensities of sounds (and

this varies from day to day) I feel a sensation of physical

rattling, just behind the ear drum.  I saw an audiologist

and he said he didn't know what was causing it, and otherwise

the ears were diagnosed as normal.  Any ideas?  It is particularly

set off by high pitched piano keys or vibrating things like

electric shavers.
