Should have stayed home...

So I went to the doctors yesterday afternoon.... he said my eardrum looks as if it is about to burst!! Well that sounds about right cause my ears are KILLING me!!! One worst than the other (that is the one he said looks like it may burst). He also explained to me that the pressure is dropping because there is a storm coming which will make me ears feel worse (something I never really thought about but it made sense) which is why my ears were even worse yesterday and last week when we got the lightning/thunderstorm... He told me not to go to the beach or to the mountains the next fews days. He gave me two medicines and an antibiotic then told me to stay home a day or two to rest. He wanted to know if I needed a note. I told him I wouldn't need one, that I will go to work..... he sort of frowned at me and say okay - then sent me on my way.

Welp, now here I am at work miserable again :-( I should have listened to the the doctor and stayed home! At least for a day. AHHH! I could kick myself in the A$$ right now. Oh well! I guess it is better to be paid to be miserable than to be home miserable - but then again I am not resting am I? UGH! Oh well! Someday I will learn to listen to what the doctors say. They are much wiser than me.

I'm so sorry to hear. I use similan ear drops on the kids to help with ear aches. I would think lots of hot/warm tea would help loosen things up too.

Yep - I have been downing the hot green tea all day for two weeks
