Do I fly tomorrow (middle ear infection)

Hi all,
I have a flight tommorow at 6AM to istanbul turkey (4 hour flight), I was diagnosed with acute otitis media (middle ear infection) and it started last week friday. It started out with a pain in my right ear and now the pain has lessensed alot but my right ear has clogged up (headphones made it worse) and my left ear is a tad painful. Saw a nurse on tuesday, she prescribed me with antibiotics and i have been taking it since wednesday (1 day and a half),
I've really been looking forward to this flight but I have heard alot of stories of people who have ruptuered their ear and have have become deaf due to flying with an ear infection.
I have ordered earplanes (earplugs for flying which stabilises the pressure in the ear), people have said chewing gum also helps and a sinus spray before the flight. Unfortunately the GP had no appointments today so I can't get a doctors opinion and the flight is tommorow. Has anyone had any experience to this? Do I cancel the flight?

Call 111 and ask them! Or go to a walk-in clinic. I don't really know what else to say as I'm not a doctor, sorry. If I were you though I would err on the side of caution.

I went to the walk in centre and just came back and saw a doctor they said you have to make that decision I can’t make it for you, there is a risk your eardrum might rupture which would take 6 weeks to heel, he was incredibly rude and unprofessional didn’t really give me an answer and kept saying it’s your choice

What? That is so unprofessional! I mean what would happen if you cancelled/postponed the flight?

Ikr I felt so uncomfortable. I managed to get an urgent appointment with a GP and he was a lot nicer, he said it should be fine to travel as long as you keep swallowing so the pressure doesn’t build up, unlikely your eardrum will burst since yours is mild/modertate. I am going with family and they said they can book a flight for me to go on my own next week on Tuesday so I have 5 days in turkey instead of 9 days and doctor said on Tuesday it will definitely be better. I’ve never flown on my own and the process seems quite complicated so I’m worried. I don’t know if I want to take the risk and fly tomorrow (

Oh that's good you got a better doctor, tbh I would complain abt the other one. If this doctor says it's ok, I think it could be fine. You could bring lots of sweets with you, stuff like haribos that you just suck on the whole flight. I mean I think you can only really weigh up the pros and cons tbh. Are you uncomfortable flying on your own or are you worried about your ear more?

Yeah I’m thinking of complaining…
Uncomfortable flying on my own and just generally worried I might get lost, I’m 23 so I’m a big adult and I know I shouldn’t be scared but I am
