They cured the fungus, and gradually the tinnitus disappeared as the ear settled down.

It seems to me that a lot of people have tinnitus for life. I know my mother had it, and she used to always leave the radio on because she said she didn’t notice the tinnitus if there was music playing.

The eardrops came from India or Thailand, where I gather fungus in ears is common. It is called Candid eardrops. It was cheap and much more effective than the expensive western stuff I was given at first. The active ingredient is Clotrimazole.

Trouble is, the way you write about the fungus is well on the way to a really good scary short story already. :o)

(I’m avoiding humourous quips about thrush and birders, guess now isn’t the best time for that.)

I can completely sympathise with your plight. When I was younger, I was highly suseptable to ear infections. They often got so bad my entire ear canals would swell up and block off all noise. If both ears went at once, I was deaf for a week.

Hope the fungus stays away and that the thrush (which, according to the Doug Anthony Allstars, is Latin for ‘to escape from bushes’ (and if you know who DAAS are, you will officially be my idol for life)) disappears soon.

Cheers, Lisa.
