For Middle Ear Infections "I went to a new PCP with chief complaints of a migraine, ear infection, sore throat, and nasal drip on March 13th, 2020. The antibiotic did not work, and my ears were still in pain on March 21, 2020. My PCP then called me with a prescription for these hydrocortisone/neomycin/polymyxin B ear drops. My ears got extremely worse than before, making it unbearable. I went to the hospital, and the doctor told me that I still have an ear infection and scarring inside my ears! Both of my ears now have hearing loss, ringing, severe pain, migraines, sinus pain, coughing, memory loss, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, gas, dry mouth, dry throat, loss of voice, shaking of hands, slow and jerky muscle movements, frequent urination, bowel cramps, feeling about to pass out, dizziness, chest pain, tight chest and breathing problems, loss of appetite, and insomnia. I pray that this medicine is removed from the shelves. It is a dangerous drug, and I pray that it does not cause lifelong threatening complications or even death after using it."
