Chronic ear infections

Question

Asked for Female, 33 Years

I've suffered from chronic ear infections all my life. I've seen multiple GP's and ENT's but no one can figure out what's causing them. Multiple tests for diabetes have turned up normal. I also wear ear plugs when showering. I'm a 33 year old female. Medications: perindopril, amlodopine, wellbutrin, sertraline, cyclen. Surgeries: tonsillectomy and adnoidectomy as a child. Allergies: seasonal, tobacco, codfish. Non-smoker, not a drug user.
