Hi!!
I am waving to you from the couch, in a seasick daze. I am still home, still sick. Right now the dr. “guessed” that it is a deep middle ear infection. Sometimes it is called labyrinthitis. Last week I was on antibiotics for swollen glands, and an upper respiratory infection. I am allergic to almost all antibiotics, so last week when I woke up in the middle of the night from severe vertigo, and crawled to the bathroom to throw up I figured it was an allergic reaction to the meds. The next day I went to the doctor, he told me to stop taking the meds in case they were making me sick, and guessed that it could also be a middle ear infection. My ear does not hurt at all. My only symptoms now are a fever (going on week 3) and severe dizziness. He told me to rest and to hope for the best. If it does not get better in a few days I have to go see a specialist. They also want me to go to an allergist to see which antibiotics I can take as there are none left for me to take. Fun times.
Please keep us in your prayers.
Love!
Oh my! That sounds awful! We will be praying for you. I really hope they can find something to help you get better. Take care of yourself.
You need to see a good pharmacist. Increase your liquid intake. Meclizine is good for vertigo and allergy symptoms. I continue to pray God's healing power for you each day.
