>> I get my wax removed by the Audiology clinic. No charge.
Interesting, is that service available to all or is there some form of 'gatekeeping', like having a hearing aid.
Mrs B's ears are constantly filling with wax to the point her hearing is badly affected. A familial issue which affected her Mother, Brother and, to a lesser extent our two offspring.
Neither the GP nor, so far as she can ascertain the hospital, will do anything. You need to go to a commercial (ie for profit) audiology outfit like Boots or Hidden Hearing. She goes to somebody in the old Army place at Weedon who does nothing but get wax out of people's lugs.
My parents both used to have theirs syringed by the GP every year or so. Never needed it myself.
