Voltron Posted June 24, 2013 Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 Good day with the grand children yesterday. Daughter came to pick them up and both talked briefly and gave me a hug. First time I had seen any of them since March if memory serves. Really sounds great, Al. Glad to hear you had a nice visit and that hug must have felt pretty damn awesome! Nice Dan, how packed was it along the way? Hopefully you stopped a few times. Me: finished mowing the yard in brutal heat. Took a 25 mile bike ride later in the day in worse conditions. My Garmin said the average temp was over 90. Thank god for the new AC. Were you just trying to test out whether your new AC unit could prevent heat stroke? Take it easy, cowboy. [but still, congrat on the new AC. ] Day 4 of the living room renovation. Slower progress than hoped, but things are going well. The floor was 7" out of level in 16'. You read that right... 7"! The joys of living in the loft of a 100+ year barn. But it's one of the last things I need to do before the baby comes. My father has, as always, been amazing to work with. Can't wait for things to wrap up. Celebrating my 2nd anniversary! Congrat and congrat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

en480c4 Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Thanks everyone. Our anniversary evening was thwarted by severe thunderstorms delaying our dinner on the grill. But we had a great day none the less. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MexicanDragon Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Went back to doc about ear infection I thought had cleared up. Nope. Strong drops and antibiotics now, followup in two days and we may talk ENT.Good times.**BRENT** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torpedo Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Middle ear infection? Is it draining? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MexicanDragon Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Said my ear drum looked red and perhaps she said fuzzy?Had an infection a few weeks back and it cleared up a bit, but has resurfaced.Brent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torpedo Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Doesn't seem that bad, Brent. You'll get better. Hopefully Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MexicanDragon Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Tinnitus, though. Hoping temporary, not hopeful. Pissed and frustrated about that part.Brent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augsburger Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 (edited) Ok, since this Snowden thing I have been a little paranoid of the CIA drones flying around this part of LA. Well today I finally spotted one in the distance in act of surveillance. I always knew the CIA was active out here; caught in the act absolutely no doubt about it!

MexicanDragon Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 I'm on 875mg Augmentin 2x daily with Ofloxacin Otic (what it says on the bottle)solution 0.3%, 10 drops, 2x daily. Just did the drops for the first time, kinda freaked me out a little. Felt like my ear was full after just a few drops. Supposed to stay on my side for 5 minutes, wound up being more. I FIGURE they should go down in (followed directions to get it to flow), but seems like it may not be working too terribly well for me. This is the same ear I had a sebaceous cyst on a couple months back. That was fun too. I follow up on Thursday morning. Started hurting worse after work, but hopefully things will be better soon. **BRENT** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torpedo Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 10 drops? That's way too much, just 3-4 drops is enough. Before applying make sure the liquid is at body temperature. The tinnitus should improve once the inflammation (being in the external or middle ear) is gone. How about your hearing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salt Peanuts Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 Not quite done yet, but cleaned and moved stuff out of my office/storage room. It amazes me how much crap I've accumulated over the five years we've been in this house, as well as to how much crap I keep holding from one place to another.

MexicanDragon Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 10 drops felt like way too much, especially at 2.20$/ml. Feels "full" at 4.Hearing isn't as bad as last time, a little stuffy.Tonight, definitely going sub-5. Directions say hold head sideways for 5 minutes, took much longer than that, otherwise most would have dumped out. I've tried the lobe tugging and whatnot to struaighten the ear canal, but it's still not feeling like everything is getting to where it needs to go.Pain sucks though.Thanks for the info.Brent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torpedo Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 I don't know if you have available ear drops with Ofloxacin plus dexametasone, they could help to speed up the inflammation control, hence the pain. Ear pain is really bad. Drug yourself Pull the pinna back and upwards, not the lobe. That's what will align the canal with the timpanic membrane 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
