I have a fair amount of difficulties equalizing and after this past weekend (AOW dives) I have had some water in my ear. I visited the Doc last night and was told my ear drum has some blood on it he thinks it might have been perforated at one point and has since closed up and is still hearing. He gave me 5 days of zithromaz (sp? An antibiotic) and I need to go back to have it checked out again before I go diving next weekend (10 days yet). I felt some brief pain when diving nothing I would describe as excessive, and I ascended and equalized and then descended without further issue, nothing that caused me to end a dive. Anywho I had previously posted that its incredibly difficult for me to get water out of my ears, someone directed me to another thread where I got all the information I could ever want (thank you I say that here since I can never find my old threads on this site).
For the reasons above and others I am interested in ordering the Pro ear mask from ScubaToys:

I have a couple questions is this a purge mask? I read a thread that said it was but I can not find verification on the web. Also, I have a very large mask and the smaller masks are difficult for me to obtain a seal. Buying a mask online is difficult to gauge the size anyone know if this mask is slightly smaller or larger as far as masks go ?
I doubt its a purge mask cuz if it is I doubt the tubes from the mask to the ears would clear well ? ? I dunno but for $50 I am game to try it out. Thanks again everyone this has been a very helpful site for my wife and myself.
