Try olive oil for three days to a week - this will soften and remove wax.JESUS! Glad I don't drink it much.
By the way Grouch, any tips for removing ear wax AND why do you twitch just as your going to sleep, I'm a bad bad twitcher
The twitch is a myoclinic jerk. It is actually your nerves relaxing as you go to sleep. Some think that it may be a hangover from when we slept in trees, to wake you up before you fell out of it. That would explain the falling/dying sensation. You aren't actually close to death.
