fluid in ears

Post by kcarlee » Fri Mar 04, 2011 9:12 am

I have been on cpap a year, been able to go down to 6 pressure. seem to have chronic cough, with sinus problems and now fluid in ears. I turned up the humidity to 2 but don't want to go higher because I had so much fluid in my one ear at one time from doing this. am going to doctor today but wondering what to do about this, have had problems a couple months. Tried a little sudafed but hate how it makes me feel.

Kcarlee, I have had the same problem with fluid behind my ears. I am taking norell SR a rx. It is getting a little better. I also will try some mucinex (OTC) to losen congestion from sinus problems which is suggested by my pcp. I am going to ENT on the 29th to discuss this with him. I will let you know what they say.
