We went to see my ear specialist again since I am tired of having muffled hearing the past days.  Gosh, I got scared yesterday when I saw blood in the q-tips I used to poke my left ear.  I know I am bad!  That’s actually one of my weaknesses.  Every time I see q-tips my ears itch that I can’t help but to dig very deep.  I have been doing this since college days and it got worse when I got here in Colorado because it is so dry here, the more my ears itch, ugh!!!

I have been suffering from ear infection for 3 weeks now.  We went to my ear specialist 2 weeks ago and she gave me anti-biotic ear drops.  But obviously, the drops didn’t work because my ears still ache from time to time and yes the muffled hearing.  So, we went to back to the doctor today, and I got really scared when during the hearing test, the lady assistant told me that my hearing has gone back down so bad from seven months ago.  My, my, my, I was really so worried… and scared…

However, when the lady doctor checked my ears, she affirmed that I still have the ear infection.  She did some cleaning and thankfully I am hearing clearly right now.  She prescribed me with a more potent anti-biotic – oral and ear drops to address the infection; and she also suggested a more aggressive treatment.  So, we are hoping that these will be it.  But I still have to go back there ten days from now.

I hope and pray that everything will return to normal by then.  I swear I will really do my best not to mess with my ears.  I don’t want to be deaf!!!
