Urghh reminds me why I hate doctors - and I don't even have to pay for them! Just never really seem to have a clue and are usually a waste of my time and theirs >.>
*pats the Ciato* Sucks that you had to go through that. Earth infections are teh evil. I used to get them all the time and now have to be really careful so that I don't. I *do* have a hole, in my eardrum, a perforated eardrum I believe it's called. I went in to have grommits put in when I was a child but ended up having to have a huge operation to remove something infected and I was still left with the ear drum problem, I was in hospital for days.
That's a big part of the reason my hearing's so bad I think!
