Pressure, Fullness In Head, Hearing Loss. Diagnosed Ear, Fungal Infection. Fluid Drained, Symptom Persist. Problem?
For the past several months, I have experienced pressure, fullness in my head and loss of hearing (left ear). First dianosed as an ear infection , then a fungal infection , then not so sure. Yesterday, I had a procedure to drain fluid, which I was told has a pretty successful response. ENT told me there was clear fluid. However, my symptoms persist. My next appt is not until 1/28/13; what should I be asking at this point.
