That is interesting, Rose. With my big ear infection that no one knew was Wegs, after it cleared up with 3 different antibiotics and pred, the ENT treated me with 5 days of IV antibiotics to prevent mastoiditis. All looked OK. A few years later, while on Wegs treatment, I got an MRI for a different reason, which mentioned on the side that the mastoids were fully opaque in the image. Not sure what that meant, but the ENT saw it, and no mention was made of mastoiditis. I think the doc said they were full of fluid and not draining, but like it was a permanent condition related to all the damage done to my nasal cavity, ears, e-tubes, etc., and not like it was a problem. Perhaps I misunderstood something, but am obviously confused. I also have vertigo, which comes and goes, but all he's said is it could be Menieres, and I should keep a log of events, avoid certain things, have certain meds on hand, etc. Now I'm wondering if the mastoids could be involved here, and why wouldn't he say so? I guess I'm overdue for a visit to him, or a new one, for some further explanations. Thanks for your post.
