Oh no... It's outrageous that this procedure is still allowed! I can't believe how damaging microsuction can be and it's not reglemented. So sorry

Why did you have it done 3 times? ENT did microsuction to me without asking a couple months ago. It was incredibly loud but apparently doesn't cause tinnitus in most cases.

@just1morething the first two times they couldn't remove all the wax apparently because it wasn't soft enough, so they got me to use different wax drops before the third time.

@Biaxca, I see. So sorry you have your conditions. I hope you can find some relief. I tried a tapered week of prednisone and seemed normal on 1-1-23 but it didn't last. Bad static sound today.

I'm so sorry to hear this. Jeez when will the doctors/audiologists carrying out microsuction finally realise the dangers of this procedure?! They need to be held accountable. My life (and others) has been ruined by this!
