Thank you for answering Jamie ....I have had this condition bought on by alegies for many years , have got meds to control this but some times my ears just seem to block up and I have trouble hearing .....At attitude they will pop open and I hear well again but I live at sea level more or less .....my husband thinks I am deaf and has trouble understanding this.....
Both my Grandsons had what we call grommets in the UK when they were young .....that wasn't available when I was young .....they both now have excellent hearing .....I wonder if it would be an option for me , I am 79......would be grateful for your input.....Beryl
