    So I'm NOT nuts!

    For the past few weeks, I've had one headache after another and incredible pain on the left side of my face. I figured it is yet another sinus infection (the third this year so far )

    I made a doctor's appointment and I'm quite amazed at what she told me. Not only do I have a sinus infection but I apparently have one big old nasty ear infection. Who knew!!! The doctor was pretty amazed to see just how badly infected my whole left side was. Ear, nose, throat, glands, EVERYTHING is badly swollen and infected.

    It does make sense... I've been increasingly having trouble hearing. Hubby's been getting more and more frustrated with me because I don't hear him unless he's shouting. So when I mentioned to the doctor that I've had some trouble hearing lately, she said "no wonder! Your ear is basically swollen shut!"

    All along, I thought I was loosing my mind and maybe, truly, I just wasn't paying attention when hubby was talking. Hubby thought I was becoming the world's biggest hypochondriac whining and complaining about headaches, toothaches, sore throat... a different ache and pain every day.

    I'm not nuts, just infected

    OH MY LORD!!!!!! You poor kid!!!!! Why do we always feel that we should tolarate a high threash-hold of pain and agony before seeing a Dr? So sorry you suffered, and I'm glad that this can be cleared up with antibiotics!!!

    You have made a good point here in that all of us need to let our body do the talking!!!!-- Listen to your body talk, your body talk, Listen to your body Talk!!

    That's crazy!!!!

    OUCH! Sounds like you must have a very high tolerance for pain!

    Just as an aside.... you may want to consider going ahead and "ignoring" your husband! (at least on some things!)

    Hope you are feeling better soon!

    Sadly it is because we don't want anyone to think of us as becoming "the world's biggest hypochondriac whining and complaining about headaches, toothaches, sore throat..."

    Hope you feel better Kim!
