a great tweak..?

<medical hat on> Anyone cleaning their inner ear is in serious trouble, that's the the bit with the auditory and balance sensors! The bit from the ear drum to the external ear is the outer ear.<medical hat off; I look even more silly wearing a hat than I do normally >

I know EXACTLY what you mean; I could have written that last sentence myself as I've been having a similar problem for a while now too. In my case, and probably yours, this is likely due to fluid collection in the middle ear rather than wax in the outer ear. In your case this would be due to what must be a damned annoying throat infection, in mine it's my nose which is silly, being allergic to dust or something as common giving me a sort of permanently slightly blocked nose. I've sneezed every day for as long as I can remember.

All this does though make me irritated when people talk about needing extra special hearing to appreciate proper HiFi. Cobblers!

 

Disgusting isn't it I've noticed it happen over the last few MOnths. A little bit of wax either falling into the sort of shelf bit of the ear or sometimes just falling straight out! Not nice at all

I've had a cough to some degree for ages. I had a call from the hospital to check I still needed to be on the waiting list and they asked if it was still effecting me. At the time I felt "ok", but I'm pretty sure my current "ok" is quite a bit below feeling 100%

Coughing so much you vomit :chunder: ........................ nice.

As for being alergic to dust.....

I seen an episode of Body Snatchers (or whatever it's called, thing about parasites), and they said the rise in these sort of alergies is related to the eradication of worms in the human stomach! There was a guy on there who suffered badly from pollen and such. He started increasing the number of worms in his stomach, and it completely cured his allergy!

Not sure how you go about asking your doc for that though

 

I wonder if this coincides with me having a sub..?
