Strange things happening

So after 35 years of coping with the bloody t something strange happened today. Most of that time it not being a real problem, see my other posts.

I went to the gym with my daughter this morning (cried on the way there as ears buzzing so loudly even above the noise of the car engine) and I while I was working out I could literally feel stuff moving around in my ear. Went to the GP last Thursday and he said I had fluid behind my drum that was causing the extra t loudness. I thought he was trying to fob me off, but I actually feel like gunge is draining into the back of my throat as I have to keep trying to clear it. My ear has felt very muffled and it’s been like trying to hear through cotton wool. Hopefully this is the start of it “calming” and me habituating again. It’s a terrible thing thinking your doctor is lying to you, but he obviously could see something.

Onwards and upwards and my motto is every cloud has a silver lining, mine being I’ve actually lost 1/2 stone this week from pure worrying!

Take care xx

Have you had your eustachian tube function checked???? Could well have been blocked which would affect your hearing.

Good luck.............
