Steve, so sorry the accident happened. I'm even more glad that the prognosis is so positive.

RIP John Glenn, a true hero.

Happy Birthday, Tom!

I understand. It's scary. As I reported, I had my first (at almost 64) adult ear infection last month. It started as a head cold and eventually the pressure ruptured the eardrum. I had all the usual symptoms such as reduced hearing and tinnitus. I saw my ENT again last Friday. He says the infection is gone but that there is still a little fluid in the middle ear. A hearing test revealed slightly reduced hearing in the ear. I'm to continue treatment (Flonase and hourly clearing of the ear) until the fluid is gone. My ENT thinks hearing will return to normal.

and vanity. Especially vanity.

RIP Rugby. Indeed it's difficult. Last June, I had to put down Gringo, the remaining cat I inherited from my marriage. It hurt so much I was never able to post about it.

^ This!

Happy Birthday, Gene. Have a great one! We miss you. Hope that we can see a bit more of you around here.

You can do this yourself. Just add him to your ignore list and, voila, you've banned him. There is a caveat here. Tapatalk doesn't seem to know about ignore lists. Mostly, just don't feed the troll and he'll go away.

RIP Ron Glass. I'm going to miss you Det. Harris and Shepherd Book.

Happy Birthday, Bryan! Have a great day!

Another brand you might consider is Joseph Audio. Being in NY, it shouldn't be hard for you to audition them.

Happy Birthday, J.P.!

Congrats, Todd.

Condolences.

Happy Birthday!

RIP Leonard Cohen, Victor Bailey, Robert Vaughn and Leon Russell. Sad week.

Thanks for the advice, Antonio. I'll use the vaseline and cotton trick for this mornings shower. So far the antibiotic hasn't made a huge difference. There still is some draining, though nothing like yesterday when my ear canal was full of discharge. I plan on making an appointment with my ENT tomorrow. I'll keep you in the loop.

Thanks for the get well wishes. Hopefully the antibiotic will kick in soon.

Thanks. I knew that the ear drum was now perforated but didn't think about water. I need to shower soon. Would you suggest stuffing a bit of cotton ball into the ear or something like that to block the water? Hopefully the Amoxicillin I'm taking will knock this down quickly.

After suffering from what I thought was a head cold for week and a half, I woke up this morning with a bloody, purulent discharge from my left ear. So off I went to the local Med Center and then to Costco for the antibiotics. I think that this is the first ear infection I've had since I was a young child.

Happy Birthday, Mikey! Have a great day. Can't wait to see what you open.
