sorry to here that bro....

how bad is it? sad.gif
the surgery went well.

but doc said they will need to leave a hole in the ear for easy checkup later... so advised cannot dip into water/lake/pool etc. scare water get in there.

can but have to wear ear plug.

checkup every few months or when feel necessary. its not coming back but some time got fungus inside so go see doc for clean up.

so far all ok. hopefully yours too.
*btw mine; doc suck out that thing as big as an egg. already covered whole area in the ear. "simpan" too long already.聽 sweat.gif

Oh my... hope mine not getting that bad catching cholesteatoma since it just few months sweat.gif

Oic...
Urs is the endoscopic method?
Or the cut through the ear shape outside the earlines?

Need to leave a hole there & Cannot go to water or pool is temporary few weeks after the surgery or permanently?
Mine is quite minor, so use endoscopic method

Mine just found that there's a hole in right eardrum last Nov 2024... and still open until today.. after several occurrence of ache effect, the clinic ask me refer to ENT specialist... first consult with one specialist not bother on the holes and given me betaserc 24 mg cost 3+++ then after catches another relapse I consult another ENT specialist with audiology test cost 4++ and scheduled for operation this week sweat.gif

Still not sure on either Endoscopic or Microscopic but the method looks like Type 1 Tympanoplasty (Myringoplasty) from the explanation
Googling some YouTube and looks kinda scary blush.gif

Any advice for those going similar conditions highly appreciate notworthy.gif

Mine was endoscopic

Took me many months before deciding to proceed with surgery o not
Before deciding which hospital and specialist, make sure know that the doctor is well experienced in the surgery..
Ask every details u have doubt in

And what are the after effect for each method of surgery

U going to which hospital? How much is the surgery?
*
Yeah sound few more doubt need clarify tomorrow after read thru the thread thumbup.gif thanks a lot

Will be admitted in KPJ Specialist sweat.gif just applied for GL, no estimation seen yet unsure.gif

They didn't do any ctscan to see if any foreign stuff inside ur middle ear?
Then how they decide what to do during the surgery?
*
CT-scan schedule for tomorrow to confirm the middle ear conditions after admission, from scope seem no foreign stuff inside yet as eardrum quite transparent sweat.gif

U won't be able to see through the eardrum, if the foreign particles are too small or more inner

But why are u admitted if haven't do those scan?
Suppose to do ct scan, go home few days and wait for the result and analysis.. Then the doctor share what he propose.. If u agree only schedule a surgery

Yeah the doctor had highlight about this yesterday and since the hole obviously there quite some time.. I thought of doing it together during in-patients coverage med card instead of going separate ways sweat.gif notworthy.gif
