No cutting involved :) They are basically going to put a surgical balloon into my eustachian tube and inflate it in an attempt to unblock the passage. And then remove the balloon after a few minutes. The whole thing is like unplugging a bathroom pipe.
Yeah, I think patulous ET is a bit my rarer than normal ET? Patulous ET causes whooshing or rumbling from what I’ve read, because the tube is in a open locked position? The procedure is pretty safe from what I’ve been told. Again, no cutting, stitching or burning. It’s over in 15-20 minutes.
