Hi,

Can you please let us know what type of ear infection you had? Have you got an audiometry and tympanometry done for your reduced hearing?

Regards

Same thing happened to me last November around Thanksgiving.  I already had high frequency hearing loss in both ears, but the infected ear came back to "normal" about 6 weeks later.  Give it time, you should be ok.
