Default Feel like I am falling apart

It seems like since surgery, I feel like I am falling apart...LOLOL With the kidney hurting me and having to go for a CT scan next week so we can rule out stones and when I got my hair done, the beautician accidentally sprayed water into my ear. Well, I have/had tubes in my ears all of my adult life and it started hurting, so I went to my ENT today and found out that I have a really bad infection...so much so that he took the tube out and will look at replacing it in the next few weeks. ARGHHHHHHHHHH. I almost died when I got my prescription for the ear drops....I had to pay $17.00 with insurance and saved over $98.00. HOW the heck is a single mother out there with no insurance suppose to pay something like that? I just could not believe it. You know that kids always have ear infections and this has got to be a common drug for it. I was really apalled by that. I just wanted to vent today....LOLOLOL

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Kim honey,

The next time you go to the Dr ask for samples in what ever they precribed you. Im thinking this was Cipro or Floxin?

I had my ear drum lanced when I was a teen because of such a bad inner ear infection.. I hate sore ears. And it is worse with the kidney problems it is hard to tolerate more then one ach or pain at a time.. I hope the meds get you back on track soon. Keep us posted..

Thanks Vickie...this is an antibiotic/cortisteroid ear drop. I didnt think that $17.00 was too much to pay for it, especially when it works so well, I just worry about the cash price that a young mother has to pay for her baby... you know what I mean? I started the drops this afternoon, so hopefully tomorrrow I will be feeling much better. Thanks guys...you are the greatest!!!

So sorry you're having all these issues too! Hope everything starts to get better soon! I hate ear infections -- honestly, I had one once and I thought I was going to die, it was so swollen I felt lopsided and I couldn't hear out of it for weeks which drives me absolutely mad! Hope you feel better real soon!

I have always had issues with my ears, but we were in the military and all they wanted to do was give me ear drops for 2-3 infections per month. That lasted until my late 20's. I saw a Dr. that basically told me that I needed to see a psych since he didnt find anything wrong with me. I was soooo PIST off, I knew that there was something because I could not hear normally. I went to my now ENT (have been seeing him for 15 years now) and the first thing he did was test the pressure in it and there it was, YEARS worth of fluid build up! This is the second infection that I have had since I had the tubes put in. Hopefully this will work and I will not have to have the tube replaced. That would be so nice! LOLOL
