Saturday morning, lucky me, I woke up with a sore throat. It wasn't fun. I called Mom and asked what to take and she said just whatever tylenol product I have, so I took 2 Big Lots brand tylenol and hoped for the best. It did nothing, other than give me a headache, so 6 hours after taking that, I took 2 more, but got another headache. I eventually took a Nyquil pill and went to bed.
Sunday, I woke up to an even worse sore throat and headache. So I opted for Dayquil pills, and it helped some, but the head still hurt pretty bad. But at least I felt good enough to go over and buy myself some juice, which I hadn't felt like doing on Saturday.
Yesterday, I got up and still had a sore throat. Mom and Dad said if it still hurt by Monday to maybe go to the student health center to find out if I had something other than a cold. At this point my ear felt kind of funny, but I didn't notice much and I figured I'd go see what was going on after my classes. I wasn't sure if I had had a fever before, but yesterday, I assumed I had because I was just putting on my shoes for class and felt kind of sweaty. My friend in Stats felt my cheek and said I was definately warmer, so I needed to see a doctor. I went to my 2nd class anyway to get my midterm back (A- in case you were wondering. Not bad considering I couldn't focus on studying because I was too excited for 'Grey's Anatomy' to come on). My friend took me to the health center after class and I waited for 2 1/2 hours (more on that in another post) for them to tell me that I have a middle ear infection.
So now, I am unable to hear so good in my left ear. It's what we refer to as having a "fluffy ear" in my household. Not so fun and I have some nice yellow and maroon pills to take 3 times a day for 10 days
