Nora had a follow up appointment for her tubes last week. We were surprised to find out her ears were red and infected! Both ears had previously drained (which indicates the tubes are working as they are draining an infection), this time there was no drainage. I was a little frustrated and bummed, as it seemed she was still battling infections. However, there is no pain associated with them with tubes.
We had another appointment today to follow up on last week. Her ears were completely clear and she passed her hearing test and was within the normal range! Woo Hoo!! Her initial hearing test showed mild hearing loss (most likely due to fluid build up), but it was comforting to know she was in the normal range the tubes are working! Whew! We're supposed to follow up in 6-12 months...so hopefully she can stay "clear" until then! :)
