Surfing and Hi-Fi


Hi all,

I was wondering how many people on this site Surf ( not the internet ). I was also wondering if it causes you any issues with your ears. I have blown both ear drums at least once over the years and after the last time (1 1/2 years ago ) my ears are always plugged after surfing, more the sinuses and Eustachian tubes actually. I have had my hearing tested and have great hearing still, the doctor said it is rare to see people with my level of hearing at my age (35). So my concerns are not really of hearing loss, but that annoying feeling of being plugged up, it really rolls off the highs. I have tried Sudafed and other similar drugs in an attempt to dry things out, it does helps a bit, but I don't know what the long term effects of taking it everyday are. Have any of you had this problem? Have any solutions? Earplugs and not surfing are not options.

Thanks,
Mike

I've been on sudafed for probably 50+ years in one form or another and my hearing is fine, all due to asthma and allergies. Take it daily at least once sometimes more. No real long term side effects that I've found yet but then who knows as time goes on.
