Today hasn’t been my best. I have an inflamed nerve running from my ear down my jaw which and has me in a lot of pain. Not constant, but when it flares up, it makes it hard to even think. This has been going on for several days, but being home last night, it made it impossible to sleep and all I have been able to do is take cat naps. I’m an emotional and mental mess. The best part is all I can do is take aspirin to off set the pain as there isn’t anything to be done but let it work its self out. Add to this a loss of appetite and I’ve been loads of fun to be around even though I’m trying to remain civil. I know it could be worse, but I’m tired of this and just want it to go away.
I’m so sorry you’re in pain, Kira. Have you been to the doctor?
I called and was told to take something for the pain, if it doesn’t settle down later in the week, then they want me to come in. I guess they don’t think it’s too serious. Just something has irritated the nerve. The main concern is that I don’t have an ear infection, but if it resolves its self, then no need for a visit. Guess I’ll just have to wait and see.
I hope they find out what’s going on and you feel better soon
Me too!
Feel better soon Kira.
Thank you.
Hugs! I’m so sorry you’re not feeling well, Kira. Coconut helps with inflamed myelin sheaths, so if you *can* eat, try some coconut.
Thank you, I didn’t know that about coconut.
Feel better soon Kira. I never heard the coconut but get coconut water maybe.
At this point I’ll try coconut butter…
I hope you’re better soon. ♥
Thank you.
I’d hug you, but I’m afraid I’ll jostle the inflamed area. Make sure you get plenty of fluids, even if you aren’t hungry.
I am. Funny you should mention hugs, my youngest gave me one for bed time and it felt like I’d been stabbed… I had to assure him he didn’t hurt me.
