So I took Adalie to the ENT today to have her ears checked. Sure enough, she has a pretty bad ear infection in both ears. She also has a bit of fluid in both ears. That was a huge relief to me... until we had her hearing tested. Normally, kids with ear infections as bad as hers will test with a 5% hearing loss. Today Adalie tested a little over 20%. Therefore, he is not completely convinced that this is because of the ear infections. He put her on an anti-biotic and wants to have her hearing tested again next week once the infection has been taken care of. If it is the same and / or is not mostly better, we will continue to have her tested regularly. In the event the hearing gets worse we will look into different hearing aid options if necessary. I am going to try to remain positive and optimistic that this is all because of her ear infections and her hearing will be back to normal next week!! :D
Oh ya, she also has swollen tonsils, so we will check those again next week and if they aren't any better after the anti-biotic.. they are comin out!! So pull out your umbrella's people... cause this rain storm isn't over yet!
