Hi SKeezyks how ru the problem with my ears were made to be difficult by a really sick ENT. This community is pretty small with 3 health systems and the fraternity of ENT's who have made my physical and mental health worse. He put the tubes in through my ear canal into my jaw membrane. I found out when the tube came out. I have a nice health manager. She got my new PCP and ENT in a small town 25 miles away..Still not far enough away..They no I have major depression with anxiety and panic disorder so when he said my ears were fine I said then I must be just imagining this and he made the diagnosis of psychosomatic. I had other people with hesitation look and confirm the mastoid full of gew. My health manager can't see how it could go beyond my eardrum I don't have a ear drums in my ears so how can my ears be okay. So how can you make a eardrum. You blow air in your ear canal with a gas siphon cut the tubes shorter. This is my solution go deaf again. The problem is it comes so fast eventually breaking through my ear drum. Some or most of my family is thinking I need to be put up in the mental health Ward.
