Update

For those scoring along at home… left ear is still a mess. Not any better so went back to the doc today. Ear drum looks way better. Ear canal is a little better. Next we try a steroid dose pack and Claritin and Flonase. The ongoing bad air from allergens and Saharan Dust might be causing all of this. Also working on a referral to an ENT. Sigh.

  3. Thank you, Patti. The bad air this season has been unreal. I am not at all convinced that this explanation is right either, but we shall see what happens. I really just wanted another and different round of antibiotics as I don't think the infection is gone.

  4. Trying to, Jerry. Just getting to me, a bit. Much like the damn heat and humidity. Thanks.

  5. That sounds just a teeny bit better from the day before. It is pretty hard to avoid allergens and dust. I hope something works soon.

  6. I have been running tow different air filter units here for months to try and alleviate the evils in the air. Have worn a mask outside to try and mitigate. Don't think I did much.

    I do too, TracyK. I am a very unhappy camper.
