If you read my "Flying" post you will know that I have having some ear issues. I had taken some benadryl before the flight to try to avoid any issues. But on the flight home my right ear popped. When it popped the sound and pain that followed woke me. Now I was hoping that the pain and now headache would subside after some ibuprofen and a good nights sleep. Since I was sleep deprived.
After five days of eye crossing pain from my ear and head I headed to the doctor. And nothing they could see nothing wrong with my ears and I was not having any other symptoms. They gave me a list of symptoms to look for and to come back if I develope any. They also gave me some eardrops. I had an appointment with the audiologist in a little over a week. So I was hoping for some answers then.
Now two weeks into my ear pain and headache I also have a cough. (And my balance is Really off, not sure if this do to my ear or other issues.) A cough was one of the symptoms to look for, so back to the doctor I go. I did get to see my doctor this time, she had been on vacation the week before. (She has been my primary doctor for several years now. It is nice to have the same person so I don't have to explain all my other issues too first. Though sometime I do feel like we do see each other to often.) But once again nothing, she could see nothing wrong. So she sent me off with a script for cough medicine and we crossed your fingers that the audiologist could tell me something the next day.
I had an early appointment with the audiologist. And after 30 minutes of tests she told me I odd shaped ear canals, my hearing was within the normal range and she was referring me to and ENT.
Tomorrow it will be three weeks from my ear poping plane ride. And I still have an earache and a headache and I am waiting to see the ENT.
