you can not imagine the relief. Even the nurse was shocked how badly my ears were clogged with wax. Thank goodness it wasn't the eardrum that I was afraid it was going to be. When she cleaned them out I let out an audible AHHHHHHHH and went oh my god. The other ear was even bad too and she was shocked I could hear out of it. The piece of wax that came out, shit you not, was like the size of a beetle. Amazed something like that could even get clogged in here.
Thanks to all you comrades for the well wishes.
I hate the term "no brainer" but the FDA reminding people not to confuse the ear drops and eye drops is really a no brainer. I have to assume other countries have tackled this problem. I guess the head of the FDA is always beholden to the ear drops lobby.
