Earache Part 2 and Stuff

So my earache has not completely gone away.  It's just kinda there; like a dull ache in my ear.  I made an appointment to my ENT to have her look at it.  My regular doctor couldn't find anything wrong and told me to take Sudafed and come back in a few days if it didn't get better.  Well the Sudafed didn't work so I'm going to the specialist.  That'

When my jaw was at its worst, I had to see the ENT a few times. THe swelling of the TMJ put enough pressure on my ear and ear drum that I was dizzy, had a ringing noise and unbelievable pain. For like 4 months. I suppose that I just got used to it, eventually, but ear pain sucks. My theory is that since it's right by your head, it's worse. Hot packs helped with the discomfort. I am sorry you are hurting, and especially there. Even now that my pain tolerance is so much higher, when my jaw is really bad and hurts my ear, it sucks.

Your holiday card should have a picture of you two in nature, especially so people can see how much weight you have lost!

I haven't tried the hotpacks yet, so maybe I'll do that tonight after the gym. I'm thinking it might be an inner ear infection. Won't know until tomorrow. I'll have to talk the hubby into having his picture taken; you know how much he hates that.
