I have had a problem with my right ear for over 10 years, and it was diagnosed as a patulous Eustachian tube. I felt that the symptoms were getting worse, so I visited the clinic. I was prescribed a Kampo herbal medicine for it. I visited Cafe Yamaneko, where I was able to concentrate on reading books. After that, I went to Tachimachi-ya, a bar.
