Hi Maria, It is very common to have ear issues due to the damage the meningitis does. For the character change it is also an after effect due to the brain injury. You might notice that it is when your head gets hot from exertion or hot sun. Be gentle with yourself, we have to live with a slightly changed brain. Best of luck.
