I am SUPERWOMAN!
According to my ENT, whom I saw this morning, I have phenomenal hearing despite a 24/7 ringing/buzzing sound in my ears that's also accompanied by an occasional high pitch squeal.
It is also confirmed that my 8 year old is ignoring me. Hmmm...
I was the talk of the office - Perfect hearing, Tinnitus, Devic's Disease, A Medical Marvil. Well, maybe not. But it sounds nice.
I went through a round of hearing tests which wouldn't be complete without the small, metal looking, sound proof room. Any normal human being would go crazy in that thing if they were in there for more than 5 minutes. And with blurred vision, the metal wire looking things covering the walls looked like they were fusing together and closing in on me. Fun!
Something I did learn from this appointment is that I have a pretty bad sinus infection. And not only that, but I'm contagious. Really!? I didn't think sinus infections were contagious, so I turned to my trusty Mr. Know-It-All, Google, and confirmed that it is indeed a spreadable cootie, depending on the circumstances.
I was ordered to limited activity (Yay!) and to take antibiotics for 10 days.
But then I remembered, I have a son at home with pneumonia and a daughter who seems to (just this morning) be coming down with something as well. So for me, taking it easy is not in the cards.
