***Riding an airplane, the great outdoors, and swimming. What do these 3 things have in common? They all can affect your ears, more specifically your eustachian tube***

😌 Thanks for your concern. Not really too much mystery about my recent vertigo problem; about 5 years ago I had an operation on my left ear which involved a mastoidectomy. A CT scan at the hospital this weekend revealed a mastoiditis of a probable chronic nature there.

I am fairly sure that the med the urologist put me on has cost me a hearing loss but whether that has affected my inner ear remains to be seen. My regular Dr's office asked me today if I am still taking the urology med and I said 'No' and they asked me when I stopped taking it and I said, 'On my way to the hospital Friday!' 😄

They are obtaining a referral to my previous ENT {ear} doctor.
