For amusement, I threw the contents of your google doc at Opus and asked it for questions from the perspective of complimentary medicine. Below I have cherry-picked the ones I found interesting:
Any experience with lymphatic drainage massage, especially around the neck and ears?
Experience with acupuncture or acupressure for ear/sinus issues?
Have you tried nasya (nasal oil application) with sesame or specific medicated oils?
Any yoga practices, particularly inversions or specific pranayama (breathing exercises)?
Use of neti pot with specific salt ratios or herbal additions?
Differences when traveling to different climates or altitudes?
During the periods where symptoms abated, what else was different (diet, stress, location)?
Have hot showers, steam, or saunas provided any temporary relief?
Any positions (lying down, head tilted) that change symptoms?
Have you noticed any neck or jaw tension that preceded or accompanies the ear issues?
Any history of teeth grinding or TMJ problems?
Do you hold stress in your shoulders or upper body?
Any changes in your breathing patterns since this started?
How much time do you spend in air-conditioned or heated environments?
Do you notice symptoms changing with humidity levels, not just pressure?
Do you notice the symptoms worsen with certain foods (dairy, cold foods, raw foods)?
What’s your sleep pattern like? Do symptoms change with sleep quality?
I do not have great personal interest in the answers to these, but reflecting on them might highlight relevant patterns to add to your collection of documentation on the condition.
