I currently have Covid for the first time. My husband and I are experiencing it very different. He is in bed, extreme body pain. I am not bed ridden but have the absolute worst head cold, sinus issues of my life. Yesterday the pressure in my ears was so awful I've now lost hearing in left ear (assuming temporary) and lost most of my voice. Unlike on a plane, I can't pop my ears which is odd (like with a yawn) but for what it's worth thought I'd post my current symptoms and yes, my ears seem to be majorly affected but will see once I am through this illness. Please keep pursuing answers. You have to be your own advocate. The Healthcare community needs to wake up and open their eyes and minds to things they don't know and start investigating this stuff and take patients seriously. Best of luck to you.
