Joined: May 2012 Posts: 31 | It's kind of like my ear needs to pop, and there's also a pins and needles thing going on with the outer ear...I had a scan July 1, and all appears to be well. My ENT did a pressure test and a hearing test on 7/22/14, and things seem to be normal. I'm 23 months out of treatment...My ear did this over night on May 26th, and it's never gone away.
