"Ear nose and throat"

About: Lauriston Building

(as a service user),

For over 4 years I've had an ent problem, it started when I lived in Edinburgh, I got told by a consultant I have a swollen uvula, eustachian tube dysfunction and nasal polyps, when I went back to see them, they replied, I didn't say this.  Myhearing is getting worse, I  have breathing problems   and I have had pain in my 2 ears when I swallow food or water, this is causing me difficulties wearing my sleep apnea mask and its having a severe impact on my mental health
