Thank you for your interest and advice! I am an overly analytical person and have researched heavily my dilemma. My best conclusion would be leaning toward eustreatian tube disfunction possibly related to a jaw problem like TMJ. I did get tested for TMJ and I was told nope! I do however have a tight jaw, not clenching teeth just tight and pressing tongue against the roof of my mouth. I have tried to remedy that to no avail! Perhaps I should try chewing gum?

@jfobes That's an interesting thought, chewing gum. I hope I would never be told to do that, I can't stand gum. Eustachian tube sounds like a possibility. I hope you can finally find a cause for this.

@jfobes Did you ever find a really definitive answer to why your hearing occasionally clears up and you can hear well for a brief period? If this could be figured out it just seems as if maybe there is something that could be done to make that more permanent.
