Sorry to hear about your problems... mine are also accompanied by a rising mental fog which is making it hard to concentrate. My brother used to get earaches after swimming because his ears didn't drain well and I have tinnitus which I (and the VA) attribute to my Navy service.Douglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09752593286034877538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7561631984395061740.post-33984600770643370292016-04-03T22:09:18.989-04:002016-04-03T22:09:18.989-04:00I notice ear imbalances - if that's what is fo...I notice ear imbalances - if that's what is found to be your problem or issue - progressively get worse if left untreated. The persistent 'sea shell' sound in my ear as a sleep is especially problematic and annoying. Steroid shots into the ear is my only option. This right ear has been a pain in the ass ever since I was a kid. I used to be a really strong swimmer but that too has been impacted because the water doesn't drain well.

Whatever is causing this has been constant and worsening for the past 3 or so years.Douglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09752593286034877538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7561631984395061740.post-61576358570726817062016-04-03T16:01:12.252-04:002016-04-03T16:01:12.252-04:00Rough.

I *could* play but who wants to get hurt? And if I can't play hard what's the point? So I run and cycle while looking out for a parnter to play tennis again. I have an inner ear imbalance and Meniere's Disease - which will be confirmed by an MRI in the upcoming weeks. It may be the cause of my migraines (even vertigo) and symptoms you describe. It's a bitch because it disrupts any training or routines I have. Good luck.T.C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10275996524128634117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7561631984395061740.post-44944144522018071712016-03-26T19:20:14.766-04:002016-03-26T19:20:14.766-04:00Thanks, Tom, when we met the first time, I was a 1...Thanks, Tom, when we met the first time, I was a 14 handicap... now I'm around 30.Douglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09752593286034877538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7561631984395061740.post-7604580021009766132016-03-26T10:21:58.170-04:002016-03-26T10:21:58.170-04:00Say it isn't so!
