Hey...
I had tubes put in my ears last August. I had so many problems prior to that and now nothing. I have had a couple complications but nothing serious at all. The biggest one is sometimes when I yawn I can hear the tube moving, no pain, not any problem at all. The doc said it was normal because my ears "try to reject" the tube. I believe it has definately been worth it. I went to an AME last November to renew my 1st class, he asked...were you put on any medications for the tubes? Simple answer...No.
