Diagnosis...

Sometimes things happen at the WRONG times...and this is one of those times...When you are in the middle of making a "BIG" move it's really not a good time to get sick :-(

Since October I've felt like my head was going to explode...the best way I can explain it is like living on an airplane...but, you CAN'T pop your ears...uughhhh!!!! Then the buzzing started...needless to say I've been a mess and not a "HOT" one either!!!

I planned a visit to my Dr. while I was in NC bringing our first truck load and off to an Ear Nose & Throat he sent me...The DIAGNOSIS... 

BLOCKED EUSTACHIAN TUBES

When you swallow or yawn, the tubes open briefly to let air in to make the pressure in the middle ears equal to the pressure outside of the ears...Sometimes fluid or negative pressure gets stuck in the middle ear...The pressure outside the ear gets too high...

My hearing test shows I have some hearing loss...and everyone sounds like they are talking to me through a tunnel...I feel like a little kid tugging at my ears all the time...

Well if you suffer from allergies you will sympathize with me...I am not allowed to take any allergy meds for 2 weeks...And, DAY 1 has been terrible and I mean terrible...I have to have extensive allergy tests done and apparently the meds will interfere with the results...

I am suppose to fly back to Maryland tomorrow...

Well you can guess that is a NO go!!!! I can't go anywhere that will change the pressure in my ears...

I am blessed to have good friends to stay with...but I do wish my hubby was with me!!! It's a minor setback...soon enough I will be in our new home and I can get back to the fun stuff!!!

Thanks for sticking in there with me...(in my best Arnold voice) I'LL BE BACK!! (OK...it wasn't really that good...lol)...
