Guest guest Posted November 25, 2004 Report Share Posted November 25, 2004 Thanks, Cindi, for letting me know about the ear canal swelling in Hashimoto's. I've been thinking the worst... that the antibodies have been attacking my ear canal or possibly the yeast that I know is in my sinus' have attached to the ear canal damaging it plus the antibodies attacking the yeast that's attached to the canal. Is that crazy thinking or even possible???

Guest guest Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 I STILL do that! Sometimes, I don't know what he said, but it slowly sinks in. Like I could have asked him to repeat It, but I don't. Then it's like the words are muffled and gradually become clear in my mind. Weird! in Va. > When I was hypo, I could not hear very good.
