Hi,
I went diving last Saturday, even though I had Strep throat. Before leaving the house I took a couple of Sudafed, filled the ears with Auro-Dry, and snorted some Afrin. About ten feet down I began having trouble clearing, so I decided to stay at ten feet, and dive parallel to the shallow lakes bank. When I ascended small bubbles began fizzing out of my left ear, and I couldn`t hear that great.
This Monday I went to the doctor, he gave me some antibiotics, and said my ears were blocked.
Today my ears seem to be clear, but I`m hearing some popping. Here`s my question; do you think I will be able to dive tomorrow (Saturday)? I was thinking about going to Tyler State Park, and staying shallow. Yea, I want to dive bad.
