I called my doctor this morning to see if my appointment could be rescheduled for today. I got in early this morning and found out my left hear was completely packed with earwax. The nurse flushed it out and two pencil eraser sized pieces of ear wax came out. I can now hear a little better, but not perfect. I’m sure it will be a few days before my ear is totally back to normal.
I also got some trial Lunesta medication to see if that will help me sleep. And I need to go get my blood sugar tested at the hospital (I have to fast, no meals or drink 12hrs before test). Hopefully I am not getting pre-diabetes symptoms.

the sickness upon me

Filed under: general — Tags: — Joshua @ 9:10 pm

Last two weeks, I had a string of strange illnesses. Last Thursday morning, I woke up and could not hear out of my left ear. It is all packed up inside my head. I tried cleaning out my ears with qtips and hydro-peroxide, and of course that did not fix or help me. I’ve taken every nasal/sinus decongestant I can get. Nothing. I still cannot hear out of my left ear. It isn’t really painful, so hopefully it hasn’t turned into an ear infection.
Lately, I’ve noticed I’ve been drink a lot more fluids. Like double or triple the amount of water and drinks I used to take.
Ever since my vacation, my ensomnia has been off the friggen charts. Barely get any sleep. And due to the lack of sleep, during the day, I am barely functioning. Like a walking daze.
Frequent headaches and allergy symptoms also.
Enough is enough. Called and have a doctor’s appointment on Wednesday. I’m not gunna leave till I get each symptom examined.

I put an end to my WoW gaming and canceled my subscription. I haven’t played in a week and a half, and it feels great. I have so much more time now. I’m getting into games I used to play now, like Svencoop, DoD, Civ2/3, etc. Gunna get shit done now that I am not thinking of WoW constantly.

I still have to get an eye examination plus new glasses/sunglasses as well. And get my wisdom teeth removed. Yay for shit health insurance.
