How daft and, as you said, Julie, false ecnomy. And not helping you, having to go this long with the suffering. It really isn't fair how some patients are treated.
It's a difficult call, though, Julie. If there is ear pain syringing is usually contraindicated because without knowing what is behind the wax it is possible it can do more damage than good.
