Thanks to all of you that took the time to read and respond to my topic. We have been to a few doctors now and it seems that it is not his hearing. He has soo much fluid build up in the tissues and cavities in this face and head that it is blocking his right ear from being able to sence sound waves. I thought that was good news. I thought just sinus probles, well thats not so. He has now been referred to a specialist to take a bisopy of the tissue from around his nose. The doctors say that is NO reason why a male his age should have ANYWHERE close to the amount of fluid that he has. The bisopy is to test him for cancer. It a very rare cancer in the US the average number in the US that are teseted and positive is around 2,000. I just pray that everything will be alright and that it is not cancer. I love my husband and can't even think about what it would be like without him. I know he really wants to do this and really loves me. We have talked about our options and have decided that he wants to get out of the Army and see what happens with all this and then join the Air Force if everything is ok. We have talked to the Air Force and they said they would def consider him.
