i have just been through this with ds1. your ENT will probably give you a referal to an audiologist who will do a hearing test. if the hearing test indicates a hearing loss, then the ENT will want to put grommets (tiny tubes) into your ds's ears to help clear the fluid. my ds1 had grommets put in 12 days ago and the improvement in his hearing is remarkable. he actually noticed bees buzzing in a tree in our back garden for the first time ever the other day!

if you have any questions- please feel free to ask!
