Oval window rupture

[FTTRM]

Well it's been almost 2 months since I ruptured my oval window while diving.

They says the rupture appears to have closed up, no vertigo, no nausea.
I've lost 90% low frequency hearing, kept 100% voice recongnition and have come to terms with the tinnitus, I no longer feel I'm going to go MAD!!

I'm eager to get back to diving,I'm 10 dives short of my 100 dive goal for this year. Doc says I will be cleared for diving in six months.
From those who have suffered the same accident, how's return to diving been? and has everyone waited the 6 month??

Oval window rupture can be seen with an otoscope. If your Doc looked in your ear and said it ain't ruptured, it ain't ruptured!
