Yep, had it done too. The night before I used drops (Waxsol I think??) to help soften the wax and the next day the doc flushed them out. It was painful for me but I have sensitive ears and HATE anything near them. It feels weird mainly.

Have you thought about ear candling? They're a thin hollow stick that you put in your ear, light the end of them (the end that sticks out LOL) and they're meant to help clear the wax too. I think natural health places sell them and some beauty places do it too. Just a thought?
