Hi there

Im 24 and since I started flying for a job last year ive been really suffering with my ears. I couldnt continue with my job as the pain was to intense. Its been nearly 12months and the pain is still bad and only seems to get worse, Ive been countless times to my GP and had tablets sprays etc now Im waiting on an appointment to see an ENT doctor. Ive had gromits in the past when i was young. The pain is really bad I have trouble sleeping, simple things like windows open in car, train tunnels cause me much pain, In the inner and outter parts of my ear. Im Having trouble hearing and feel im slowly becoming deaf. Im currently working in a call center for last 3 months and spend 11 hours a day on the telephone, I feel this is only making the situation worse. I have my own phone and own headsets so dont share with anyone, the pains like a knife in my ear drum. Ive tried headset, hand held phone but its not helping. Ive been off work for the last week as i cannot bare the pain any longer. Is working on the phones not helping? Some advice would be great.
