Here's the story- my left ear felt somewhat plugged for some 2 years before the cancer diagnosis. Since radiation, I've have a plugged sensation and clicking in both ears. My ENT said it's because the eustachian tubes have thickened and offered to install tubes in both ears to allow the pressure to equalize. I opted for trying only the left ear first and can't say it's really any better, but am going back next week to get a tube in the right ear and see how that works.

Anybody else have any experience with these?

Thanks,
Riley
