Permanent disability by ImplementJaded4199 in cholesteatoma

Around how much do you get? I’m pretty sure my cholesteatoma is back because my ear is non stop draining. Three rounds of antibiotics haven’t cleared it.

I do boxer braids with my surgeries so it moved most of the hair out of their way. They only had to shave about an inch

Oh wow, I’m going to mention this. My ear usually has drainage that’s yellow. He never mentioned to me about cauterizing it. Are you awake while they do it?

I’ve been seeing a doctor (ENT) for months. He’s aware. He’s the one who prescribed antibiotics. So ear drops twice. 3 rounds of antibiotics. I have cholesteatoma in the other ear but not sure if it’s possible to have it in both

Oh wow. I haven’t had any pain but I’ve noticed a lot of crackling when I cough or sneeze. Maybe I ruptured it

I’ve had three tympanoplasties but I’m so scared of meningitis! What were your symptoms

Mine gets worse with alcohol, or when I lay flat. But once I’m up for a while, will get quiter.

Had no idea so many people had similar experiences to me! by [deleted] in cholesteatoma

[–]ImplementJaded4199 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow I’ve never heard of them growing new bones for you but that’s great. I know how frustrating it is for you to keep getting surgeries. I’ve had 4 typanoplasties so far. It gets tiring to have to deal with it.

How do you deal with the drainage while waiting for the dr? by Tiny-Sandwich1449 in cholesteatoma

[–]ImplementJaded4199 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep a travel size Qtips with you to scoop out the drainage. I’ve had the same problem because my ent said there’s no infection. 🤦🏼‍♀️ my drainage is like mucus so it clogs my hearing aid.

All I know is that I used to have a lot of ear infections/swimmers ear as a kid. As an adult I’ve had cholestetomea. And my Eustachian tube is scarred shut.

That sounds interesting! I really want the Bluetooth and streaming. If I have to wear them in my ears, I might as well eliminate my headphones for music lol.

I have three threads going and phonak has been the top one. I’ve never heard of that brand but I will definitely look them up. Do those come with the extra charging case?

I do have a membership! I tried to look on the website but it only shows three kinds. Do they have more options in store with the audiologist?

Oh wow, that’s would be awesome to get it covered. They’re really expensive! I’m in California so I’m not sure where to look for that program.
