I have hearing issues.

When I was growing up my right ear drained all of the time. When I was 19, I had an eardrum replaced. They said that I had ear infections and that's what caused the draining and my right eardrum had rotted out.

I'm 58 now and about 8 years ago I went to an ear specialist in Denver due to my hearing getting worse which was after the RSD. Of course the eardrum hadn't healed right but it was too late to repair due to dead nerves.

Noises got louder for me after the RSD started but I chalk that up to the RSD pain and being so stressed due to the pain not being under control.

They did tell me in Denver that my hearing in my right ear was gone and my left was about 50%. I sure can't afford hearing aids. It's frustrating because people talk to me and I miss out on a lot of interesting stories or should I say gossip. LOL

Do go to an ENT. The draining doesn't sound like it's from RSD. Don't wait for your Dr. to send you, make your own appt.
