[QUOTE="a.paul, post: 12230782, member: 321486"]If I’m in the wrong place I’m sorry. Since my stupid physical decided I needed a cpap I’ve been trying to deal with it but I hate it. In the past couple of months I’ve had drainage from my ears. I’ve got small canals and have to be careful of wax so I figured it was no big deal. Suddenly in the past 2-3 weeks they’re really bad and then started plugging. Went to the doc and he said it was in the middle ear…probably from the cpap. Sleep doc turned the pressure down. Still plugged and not clearing up. Respitory tech at the device company says it happens and usually the only cure is to quit the machine. Anyone dealt with this and found a solution? If I medically have to stop the machine how does that affect my med card? Everyone is passing the buck and I’m concerned and in a little pain and so kinda cranky lol thanks[/QUOTE]
