Thanks y'all !!!
I just had a tube placed in my right ear Christine. He did it in the office, took 10 minutes. The right side is what got blasted and left me with some Eustachian tube weirdness. Not a big deal at all, the deadening drops were the worst part of it.
While I was there, I got a hearing test, my first in 40 years, I was impressed and pleased. I can still hear out to 10k (maybe farther, that's where the test cut off). Just have a dip about 3k due to the tinnitus.
