ear tube

The hearing in my left ear has still not improved, we've tried two different antibiotics and and a punching a hole in my eardrum, none have helped. The ENT doctor decided to put a tube in my ear and leave it for a few months to see it would help drain any fluids that might be there, and consequently help with my hearing. They had to to poke two holes in my eardrum to put the tube in and then then install a tube that's about the size of a ..... well something very very small. If anyone ever tells you that poking a hole in your eardrum is not going to hurt, they are lying. It does hurt. Take care. -Eric

They didn't give you anethesia? Collin was out for a couple hours after surgury when he got tubes in his ears. I hope the pain is gone now. And I hope your hearing improves.
Love you,

Really, they didn't put you out first or give you any numbing stuff?
