Stopped-up eustachian tube(s).

"It is cold and we have no blankets.

The little children are freezing to death.

My people, some of them, have run away to the hills, and have no blankets, no food; no one knows where they are-perhaps freezing to death.

I want to have time to look for my children and see how many of them I can find.

Maybe I shall find them among the dead.

Hear me, my chiefs! I am tired; my heart is sick and sad.

From where the sun now stands, I will fight no more forever."

You might try having your ears checked for wax. Sounds silly but I have seen a number of patients with the same complaint only to find their ear/ears were severely impacted with wax. Besides it is the easiest and first thing that should be considered.

As a combat veteran, or any veteran for that matter!!!

If you thought the fighting was over when you came home, got out, or when the politicians said it was over.

Welcome to the real fight, welcome to VA claims!!!

thanks for yalls recommendations but i have had stopped up ears because of earwax before, not sure about the eustation tube thing, but it seems more nuerological to me, theres no fullness nothing, just in an istance, it will totally go out, its really wierd, its not like it is muffled or anything, its just not there and it comes back minutes later, its happens to both ears at different times, nothing trigers them, that i can tell
