I had my appointment with the ENT doctor ysterday. I had my first-ever hearing test and passed with flying colors, so at least my hearing is okay. I also had a tympanogram to check the pressure in my ears. The results were normal, which means there's no fluid in my ears and no blockage that will lead to fluid buildup. The doctor checked my throat, ears, and nose and determined that everything looks fine, although he did find red dachshund hairs in both of my ears (thank you, Maddy and/or Max), which he removed with a microscope and some long tweezers - not a painful experience, but definitely an uncomfortable one. He thinks my problems are primarily due to TMJ problems, so he's referring me for physical therapy to work on that.
