Another update: I still don’t know what’s been going on with my ear. I still cannot pop / depressurize it normally and I’m having more issues with my hearing. My hearing appears to be fluctuating. Sometimes better, sometimes worse, sometimes I can hardly hear anything from my left ear. It’s really pretty scary. I’m really hoping it’s not a serious disease and that I don’t lose more permanent hearing than I already have. I’ve honestly never gone through anything quite this scary with my health before. I’ve definitely had my fair share of medical stuff throughout my life but dealing with losing part of one of the senses is just so terrible and awful. I’ve been in and out of the doctors office every week and having more and more tests and it’s now going on over 4 weeks since this started with no answers or improvements thus far. Today I begin a more aggressive round of steroids. Really hoping so much that it helps. I have more doctors appointments next week and an MRI of my brain in about a week and a half. Hopefully I have some answers and heal soon. I’ve been very depressed and not working at all as I’ve been disoriented, tired, having headaches, and completely stressed out. Our eyes and ears are truly one of the best gifts that cannot be bought.
