Severe Headache And Nausea After Eardrum Repair And Eustachian Tube Dilation. How Long Will It Last?

Two days after having my eardrum repaired and my right eustachian tube dilated, I had a severe headache and nausea. It became so bad that I was admitted to the hospital. It has been six days since the surgery. How long can I expect this to last? They are treating the symptoms at this time.
