Update

Here's the update from the ENT...
He doesn't think there is anything wrong with my ears. The good news is that my hearing is still great! He thinks the problem may be with my grinding my teeth in my sleep which can feel like pressure in that jaw/ear area. I also have a lot of headaches which could be from the grinding.

One of the other things that I kind of wonder about: I had to take Jordan with me today. He was actually really good throughout the visit but wanted to chat with everyone. Of course, Jordan's lack of skills shows up and people ask questions. I sometimes wonder if people don't see that I have a kiddo with autism and assume that I am a stressed out mess all of the time.

So, what now? I am supposed to get back on the ibuprofen and make sure I am wearing my night guard every night. I don't know what I think about this but for now I'll give it a shot. A friend (whose kiddo has ear problems) suggested I try a chiropractor. I don't know what I think about that but I may look for answers there if things don't improve.
