4 months ago, I was wake boarding and loving it. Until I wiped out and hit my ear on the water and ruptured my ear drum. That by the way didn't hurt to much, except when I put alcohol in to dry out the water (never do this). I ended up blowing out about 25% of my ear drum and loosing about %40 of my hearing in that ear.
I went back to the doctor yesterday to see if my ear had healed and the good news is that some of my hearing is back. The bad news is that I still have a hole in my ear drum and I will have to have surgery to repair it. With the surgery it is possible but not guaranteed that I will regain some more of my hearing.
All that said I am having surgery sometime on the Monday after Thanksgiving.
