Ear infections...
I thought only kids got these. Not so. I have one and it is a bitch! It has made my throat hurt and my nose runny. It has almost turned into a full blown sinus infection. It sucks!! Okay, I am through whining and ranting. Thanks for listening!

2. I am getting over a double ear infection and a sinus infection
Whatever underlying condition I had knocked me down for two days before the ear infection symptoms started and I ended up going to the doctor.

You have my sympathies.

5. Thanks! I am sorry you had to go through that too!
I don't know why I thought ear infections were limited to kids. I haven't had one since I was probably 2 or 3.

9. Had that as a kid
Edited on Tue Aug-16-05 09:24 AM by KDLarsen
.. ended up with a permanent impaired hearing (I'm currently in the proces of finding out just how many diseases I had as a kid - it's truly remarkable) :(

Oh, and good luck on the recovery :hi:

11. The good thing is that you are taking care of it. Lots of adults do
not treat earaches and then end up with a worse situation and lost hearing. Hope you feel better soon. :hug:

14. Thanks! I probably would have let it go had it not
made my throat start hurting. I was also running a slight fever! :hi:
