The doctor said take sudafed, gargle with
salt and bear down to help the fluid in my
ear be released.
Its done nothing. I'll probably have to
go to an ENT but I have no idea the
questions to ask or what would potentially
happen.
Age: 23
Height: 5'4"
Weight: 128
Diet: no corn syrup, no white flour,
little to no refined sugar, light on red
meat, almost no pork, lots of greens,
lentils, hummus, etc.
Symptoms: stuffy feeling to extreme
pressure feeling in right ear, dizzyness
upon standing or dancing
(formal/ballet/tap) or head movement in
sports (kickboxing, soccer), noticeably
diminished hearing.
Unusual events: severely abused
(potential injury, therefore) ages 5-18.
MMR2 shot at age 20 which caused ringing
in my ears so bad I collapsed and had a
high fever...around 103, I believe.
The pressure is getting continually worse.
It is very bad when I wake up in the
morning in particular, diminishes during
the day and is noticeable at night.
Gargling with salt just made my throat raw
and sudafed relieves some pressure but its
affects are limited and don't reverse
diminished hearing.
