Epinephrine is the a hormone and neurotransmiter. It is produced by the adrenal gland an is a fight-or-flight catecholamine.. So is norepinephrine. In biochemistry, the prefix nor means that norepinephrine is an analog of epinephrine. They function quite differently in the body. epinephrine is most commonly thought of in terms of t effect on the sympathetic nervous system-increasing heart rate, increasing blood pressure, hyper alertness, etc.
Call a doctor immediately if you suspect you or someone you know has a ruptured eardrum and any of the following occur: 1  An uncontrolled spinning sensation. 2  Difficulty walking. 3  An abrupt change in hearing.  A change in the ability to taste 1  foods. You accidentally put your ear under water.
It depends how badly the eardrum is ruptured. Mine ruptured a couple of years ago from a bad ear infection, and it took me at least 3 weeks to get the ringing out of my ear. Depends a bit of how good you protect the ear from pressure changes; usually between 2 - 4 weeks. If you really do have an ear problem, do NOT mess 'round.
