Eustachian Tube Dysfunction with Possible Hearing Loss

[JL0389]

Hi,

I have been told today by my GP I am suffering from Eustachian Tube Dysfunction and possible hearing loss.

For years I have experienced the aeroplane ears sensation. It's recently became worse. My ears click pretty much every time I swallow, constantly feel full, what I thought was wax build up is apparently just pressure from the Eustachian Tube.

I have been prescribed 2 nasal sprays for 6 weeks and referred for an NHS hearing test.

I wasn't expecting this outcome as I passed a Specsavers hearing test a few years back, however I have often been told by multiple people I am shouting when I talk

Has anyone else experienced hearing loss either as a result of ETD or alongside ETD?

Thank you.

How are you now, @JL0389?

Yes, I have ETD and some hearing loss. I think it is not uncommon to have both.
