I have never had my ears syringed, sounds horrendous 😱
 
Nah, it's lovely.:D I do it myself these days.
 
Is it weird that im jealous? I have many problems with my ears - I always have. I get my ears syringed probably once a year and I LOVE IT. It can be a little uncomfortable due to the pressure of the water but I love the feeling. Once the ringing stops, everything is so clear, I wonder how I ever heard before!

Also, agree with the tip about warming the olive oil first
 
It feels like your having your brain washed out.:D

This is how I remembered it from the first time I had it done, but the second time didn't quite live up to the memory! Hopefully, this will be a good one 🙂
 
LOL at you all - it is certainly a truly different experience! - however TBH it isn't actually unpleasant - just WET!! LOL
 
I'm glad I'm not the only one!

I found it very much a pleasant experience :D
 
Can't come soon enough for me - very frustrating hardly being able to hear a thing now, I feel as though I'm creeping around the place as I can no longer hear my footsteps! 😱 Well over a week to go! 😱 :(
 
On the subject of ear cleaning....

(Warning: Do NOT watch unless you've a particularly strong stomach!)

 
OMG! That must have been such a great relief!
 
Hurrah! All done! :D Keep the noise down there please! 😱

A not unpleasurable experience 🙂 Clearly, there was a LOT of wax, as the nurse kept exclaiming 'Oh my goodness!' and 'Crikey!' 😱 Wow, what a difference! I am, of course, now horrified at the volume my TV has been at for the past week or two 😱 I had it at volume 30 and now I can comfortably hear it at 6! Can't believe the noise my keyboard is making as I type :D
 
I remember when i first had mine done. Kept hearing this strange rustling noise. Realised it was my jumper!:D
 
Maybe I should get it done just before I see Alice Cooper in concert in june!

I weirdly really enjoyed watching this! Then again, I love Dr Pimple Popper on YouTube. She's a dermatologist that videos removing giant cysts and things!!

Ooh! Not sure if that would be a good idea or not! 😱 Wow! Did you have any problems getting tickets? Loved him back in the 1970's! (Yes, I'm that old!)

Nope none at all, He's at the O2 for the Stone Free Festival, got really good tickets. Ive seen him 4 times before, but it will be a first for my other half. The Darkness are one of the support acts.
