...the issue persists. By every variety I mean syringing Hydrogen Peroxide in my ear, Olive oil, warm water, holding ear above steaming mug of hot water, of hot water with menthol crystals, of banging my head like an autistic madman against my pillow, of banging the opposite side of my head...
And there are these moments where it feels as though it must be done, I can feel a trickle, quick tickle in my ear, but still it persists. Q-tips dipped in oil, hot compresses, and still I can't hear a bloody thing, although I've noticed that some of the dozens of Q-tips stuffed in my ear have come back dirty and so it's possible that there is indeed some sort of waxy-buildup dislodged by the water. Today I'll try again and hope, leave the oil in to soak, loosen the wax, perhaps it's getting better by small degrees and I'm just not noticing? If it persists past the weekend I'll have to see a doctor (quack quack), although it'd be better to see an ear-wallah...
