I am already afraid, I am going to have my hearing restored. Back in January 9, I took a shower and got water in my left ear. I tried to turn my ear so the water would drain out of my ear but only got a nose of water going threw the tubes and not being able to remove the water. I went to blow my nose and that is when I couldn't hear just a very tiny bit. And to this day right now. I suffer from major panic attacks and hypertension and take medication for it. My fear is not knowing what is going to happen when I get put to sleep. I know when I do sleep I may have some bad nightmares and I can wake up from them. But being put to sleep is very scary for me I'm afraid I might not wake up I'm afraid it may die. I know I need to hear and that's really important to me too. I am just really worried about
being put under. I am not afraid of the operation and I have a good idea from watching some videos on fixing ear drums. It's just being put to sleep and not waking up that has me really worried. I don't know if I am worried, I think because I have never been put to sleep is what scares me. Not waking up? I want to know if there is anyone like me who has or had this condition? Please help😠ps I am 52 years old, never did drugs nor drink.
