I've read about people experiencing an increase in tinnitus from tests performed at the ENT. Is there any test I can safely do? How else would they be able to determine if it's Eustachian tube dysfunction without running any tests?

I want to be prepared. My appointment is in six months (I'm in Canada), but I've been considering going to the USA, since I called around and found that some ENTs there have openings within a week.

I can already imagine they'll be upset with me for refusing certain tests.

I don't have any hearing loss. I can still hear a pin drop in the next room, LOL.
