Hello Thank you for your time.In July this year I went on holiday to Cyprus and after swimming in the hotel pool I developed an outer ear infection. I went to the local pharmacy and was given some antibiotic drops which seemed to help. A few weeks later I took my grandchildren swimming in the UK and quite promptly developed another outer ear infection. I still had the drops left from my holiday, so used them. Symptoms improved again. A few weeks after that, I went to a local swimming pool and I develop my third infection. All of the infections have been in my left ear. Prior to July 2017, I did not have a history of ear infections. I went to the GP and was given Otomize. I tried this for a week, but it became evident that the middle ear had become infected. I was experiencing dizziness and was unable to walk heel to toe! I went back to the GP and was prescribed amoxicillin for 5 days. After this course, I returned to the GP with symptoms improved, but not better. The GP prescribed erythromycin for 7 days. I have just finished a 7 day course of erythromycin. Unfortunately, I am still experiencing symptoms. Eg. the left side of my face is aching all down one side, their seems to be a pressure around the brow of my head, I have twinges of pain sporadically inside my left ear, tender left gland in my throat, pain going down the left side of my neck, slightly dizzy. I have just spoken to the duty DR today. She has told me that I will just have to ride out the problems. My own GP had said that if things did not improve, then she would refer me to the ENT Dept. This may seem all very regular to you, but I have been starting to feel soreness around my implant (top, left) where the gum has started to recede. I had 2 implants carried out about a year ago - One implant top left (molar position) and one implant top right (molar position). I had no issues with any of the treatments. I have experienced no problems, until now. It just seems odd that I had no history of ear infections prior to the implants. It could just be a bacterial infection I have picked up from the pool. Time will tell! Please advise. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
