So a slow start to this year's dive season has been compounded by tinnitus; in one ear, forcing me to stay out of the water.
I've just got back from the ENT and after a bit of digging, and I mean literally, he informed me I've got a retracted ear drum, which may or may not have caused the tinnitus. So he's now referred me to a surgeon.
Now I'm at the sit and wait stage.
Has anyone had any issues with a retracted ear drum? And more importantly is it likely to lead to me being a permanent landlubber?
