Ear Pain For 8 Years; Constant Off And On Posted: 02-28-07 12:43pm
My friend has had ear pain for the past
eight years. Within those eight years
there have been times where it was
constant. She has had constant ear pain
since November of 2006.
She has had CT scans and X-rays done and
she has been tested and treated for TMJ.
She went up to a specialist in Denver and
she did a special ear test for about an
hour and the doctor didn't even look at
her old X-Rays. Instead, he just told her
that he couldn't find anything and she's
going to have to live with this her entire
life.
I told her that I was going to look for
what was causing her ear pain. She has
basically given up after that last doctor
she saw.
My question is, is there anything else it
could possibly be? perhaps parasites or
viruses that can be seen on CT scans or
X-rays? I'd love some help with this.
