Flashing/pulse in my head

Hi. I'm after some advice. I'm constantly getting a pulsating flash like sensation in my head, it feels like a loud pulse or the only way I can describe it is like the sound when you take multiple pictures with a camera, the sound that you hear between each one! It's there all day and is really getting me down. I went to my GP on Friday and she checked my blood pressure, pulse and even did an Ecg, all was fine.
I will add that about 10 yrs ago I suffered a SAH (sub arachnoid haemorrhage) and have 4 more treated aneurysms so you can understand my worry!
The doctor suggested it may be caused by my Blood pressure tablets and advised I stop them over the weekend but there has been no improvement. I'm just asking has anyone experienced anything similar as it's really depressing me!

I wonder if it's a migraine aura?

What did GP say about going back on Monday if no improvement from the medication?

I did read about that actually! The doc said to go back on them on Tuesday if there was no improvement and to make another appointment!
