I saw an ENT this morning about my ears clogging up on > 500 fpm descents. The above was his diagnosis. He recommended using Flonase starting 3 days before the flight, and just before the flight, even after I told him it's not recommended that I fly until 2x the time between doses has elapsed). I figure that I can try it as long as I'm not the PIC.
The alternative was to insert a tube into my Eustachian tubes, and I'd never have the problem again. He said I don't want to do that. My mother-in-law said that one of my wife's friends had that done and she was really happy about that. Apparently, the tubes last about a year.
Anyone else have this problem and successfully deal with it? If so, what was the solution?
