i took paracetamol/tylenol before doing my last dives, also had a sore throat which dint bother me in my 2 previous dives. also had some sleeping pills nightbefore to help me sleep, i have sleeping problems. couldnt equalize was really hard to do so. was this attributed to my sore throat or the tylenol?
 
A lot of factors there, but the Tylenol isn't the likely culprit. It's probably the sore throat and whatever else is going on.

Regarding your other thread, with the added symptoms mentioned here, it sounds like you should take the full course of antibiotics.

thats what im planning to do and take the full course, but i dont know what effect it will have to my diving. maybe done at all i just would rather be safe and be at the cautious side. thanks
 
Most antibiotics aren't affected by pressure. Do a quick search on Scuba-Doc. It's a pretty extensive site with lots of great information.
