wife went to emerg yesterday because her ears are both plugged now, cant really hear anything, still coughing. did x rays and ct scan and blood work. her lungs are clear, mexican street drugs helped with that but we didnt get enough so she didnt take it long enough. then they sent her to a ENT specialist in vancouver which she went to this morning. ended up putting tubes in her ears and shes got an infection in one. both were full of fluid.
total cost was $90 cnd. $40 for the tubes ( blows my mind that we have to pay for the parts but the labour is covered ) and $50 for the meds ( benefits covered most ).
