(FXCPS000) |
[4] [cough] I was down last week ... I had er from Saturday er my ear was all clogged up, terrible pain. [5] And I was taking a course of antibiotics. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[6] And your your brains are still a bit dubious. |
(FXCPS000) |
[7] So |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[8] Let's have a look in and see what you've done to the poor old thing. [9] [whispering] You're alright [...] [] ... Still ... still not right, still not right. |
(FXCPS000) |
[10] [...] awkward between your |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[11] And you, you're frightened with your dog all the time? |
(FXCPS000) |
[12] Yeah. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[13] Are you frightened when you're on the phone? [14] That you can hear yourself |
(FXCPS000) |
[15] I can hear myself talking all the time. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[16] Quite clearly? |
(FXCPS000) |
[17] What, on the phone? |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[18] Aye. |
(FXCPS000) |
[19] I haven't really noticed that. [20] No. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[21] You didn't notice any |
(FXCPS000) |
[22] No. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[23] What what about when you're lying in bed at night? |
(FXCPS000) |
[24] No, it's just a dullness all the time |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[25] Just a dullness all the time . |
(FXCPS000) |
[26] Aye. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[27] Right. [28] We're gonna get you some special drops to use er there there s is there's still a bit of the eardrum's a wee bit blocked |
(FXCPS000) |
[29] Mhm. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[30] looking. [31] And we've got to lift that off |
(FXCPS000) |
[32] Aha. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[33] to get a look underneath the [...] er right. ... [...] |
(FXCPS000) |
[34] I mean I'm finding that you know through it because I'm sort of straining all the time I'm getting terrible headaches and all of the |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[35] That's right. |
(FXCPS000) |
[36] rest of it [...] cos obviously at work you're ... straining every minute |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[37] That's |
(FXCPS000) |
[38] of the day. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[39] Let's get , get some of the good old fashioned stuff. ... |
(FXCPS000) |
[40] Would it have came off a cold or something? |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[41] It's probably come off a cold [...] , it's er, there there's a tube in there, and the other side. [42] ... If you could cut yourself down through the middle, there's you're ears on the outside there and there's a wee channel that goes in |
(FXCPS000) |
[43] Aha. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[44] and at the bottom of that there's what's called the eardrum. |
(FXCPS000) |
[45] Aha. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[46] Now in the inside of that it opens out, there's an opening in the bone and that leads down ... among other things into a tube down here, now that is connected up further down to the sinuses across |
(FXCPS000) |
[47] Aha. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[48] here so if you get a a heavy cold, some of this gunge that runs down the back of your throat gets into this tube and |
(FXCPS000) |
[49] Right. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[50] blocks up this tube, comes right up into the back of your eardrum, blocks |
(FXCPS000) |
[51] Yeah. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[52] up that wee bit there, and I think this is what I'm seeing, |
(FXCPS000) |
[53] Yeah. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[54] is this stuff lying in the bottom there. [55] You can see the level, |
(FXCPS000) |
[56] Aha. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[57] across the bottom of your eardrum, and it's like standing and you're [...] , |
(FXCPS000) |
[58] Aha, that's exactly what it feels like, you keep sort of thinking [...] Aha, something like that to help. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[59] If you could only stretch or you know turn your head a certain way it would run out. [60] But I'm almost certain that's what I'm seeing |
(FXCPS000) |
[61] Aha. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[62] in there. |
(FXCPS000) |
[63] That that was the initial feeling that I got, it was like a build up of pressure in it, but on the inside and not in the outside [...] |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[64] Mhm. [65] That's right, [...] it's a similar to hat you get if you go flying when you've got a cold . |
(FXCPS000) |
[66] I was gonna say that. [67] Aha. [laugh] |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[68] I'm almost certain that's what's doing it to you so let's see if we can get through to it with that, |
(FXCPS000) |
[69] Right. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[70] get it broken up for you. |
(FXCPS000) |
[71] Aha. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[72] Now it's a bottle, two drops in the morning, wee bit cotton wool, just to stop it running out, don't |
(FXCPS000) | [...] |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[73] put it inside, |
(FXCPS000) |
[74] Aha. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[75] right? [76] In the morning and then before you go go to bed at night. |
(FXCPS000) |
[77] Right. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[78] Okay? |
(FXCPS000) |
[79] No bother. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
[80] Right [...] right . |
(FXCPS000) |
[81] [...] Bye bye. |
Doctor (PS22W) |
