BOAI77, it was as a result of an ear infection. Most of which has cleared up now but there is still some fluid behind the ear drum.

The ENT advised that if I could stay on the ground for a while instead of putting the tubes in, it would be better. I'm favoring that more right now, I really don't want to have surgery for only one ear infection.

Although from what Connectionpilot says, it doesn't seem that bad to actually have them!
