Well, here goes....3 weeks before the meet and my ears go to hell!!!!! :frustrated: Today after a good morning swim I got very familiar pain in BOTH of my ears which is much worse now!!!!! GRRRRR!!!! Anyway, I probably will call my doc tomorrow for more ear drops, but the question is: should I wait 5-6 days for the pain to clear or should I try and swim with ear plugs (of course if I can put them in without falling down). Any ideas? Or should I just do land exercises?
Thanks again in advance for your patience with me and all you help! :notworthy:

ok, I guess I was wrong about my ear thing....panicking is what I do! Called the doc and his first question was - how's your sinuses? Well, the nose is a little off but nothing too bad! So, first thing to try - regular 12 hour decongestant, and guess what!? No pain!!!!! I guess my allergy was acting up and it went into my ears!!!!! Still, I'll stay out of the water for a few days just to make sure!
Thank you all for your help!
Love the cap idea!!!!
