You'd be better off heading to the nearest fire station and asking them if they'll let you use their oxygen through a non-rebreather mask at 15 liters per minute or higher.

The ER is next to worthless for our condition. By the time they get to you, it'll be gone and they'll think you're a drug-seeker.

I find it difficult to believe that an O2 concentrator can produce the volume of gas needed to kill an attack.

And yes, I often get inner ear pain during an attack. I describe it like someone had just shoved an icepick straight into my ear canal.

The 02 has Never killed one of my attacks. I use a tank and it is wide open with a mask does not help me the concentrator only goes to 6 ltrs p/h  but the tank I use wide pen and do not receive any help from that sometimes it will mildly ease it but has NEVEr killed an attack I wish! would be great if it did

The wavy lines are like when u see a mirage in the road from heat rising up off road  but it is doing it to everything I look at just on the one eye so if I keep hand over it its ok ...its just kinda strange.

I am not sure if we are having the same thing
but i 'll tell you in case you might find it helpful,I ve got this ear muscle spasm during ch along with this weird pain inside ear.
what i do is close nose and mouth and push the air in ears for few seconds.In release it gives a whistle and helps a bit with the pain.
the other one is i put pure alcohol(right word?i mean the medical one)in an ear swab and i put it with it in ear without getting too much inside and hurt the canal.
it gives a warm sense which reduces sometimes the pain,at least for a short time.
sorry for your pain,hope you find some relief soon.
