Monster Infection ARRRGHHHHH!!!!
So, as I have no one to talk to right now, here I am...a place I haven't been in a while...my online journal. Where do I begin? Ah, yes...my monster ear infection. Well, over a week ago I had an ear infection in my right ear. It started to hurt really damn bad after a few days, and the right side of my face swelled up. I spent an entire weekend in excruiating pain and w very little sleep in the hope of a doctor's appt at the health center at school. Come Monday morning the infection was SO bad that the doctor could not even examine it. He said it was too swollen. He brought me to tears when he even just tugged on my ear. He gave me some anti-biotics and some Percoset, and told me to go see my Ear, Nose, and Throat Specialist. I made an appt w my ENT [Ear, Nose, and Throat] Doc, but he was booked for over a month. I begged the secretary over the phone and said it was really severe, but she wouldn't budge. So w each passing day the infection got worse and WORSE. The Percoset didn't even kill the pain. I went to the health center at my school's campus every fucking day. I saw 4 different doctors! They were all family doctors who had no fucking idea what to do w me. They kept saying well maybe they could get me in to see an ENT doctor at the hospital. They all perscribed me diff medications, which cost my family HUNDREDS of dollars, and none of them did SHIT!
Josh took care of me all week. He would come over straight from work, take care of me, then leave the next afternoon just in time to shower and go to work again. Multiple nights I cried and shook in pain. Poor Josh was so stressed he broke out in pimples. He didn't know what to do, and he sure made a crappy cup of tea. The infection spread into my sinuses and into my other ear as well! So now my entire head was infected, and I had had enough! My mom came down and blah blah etc. one of the doctor's at the school campus hooked me up w an ENT doctor who said I could come see him right away!
His name is Dr. Toso. I expected him to be Asian or something, but it turns out he's Italian [Gianfranco Toso]. It felt like a whirlwind when I got into his office. There was like a team of ppl waiting for me as soon as I got there. I guess the doc who hooked me up must have given him fair warning about the severity of my condition. I didn't even get a chance to say anything. Before I knew it I was slammed down into a chair and he was shoving things in my ears. The infection, which originally started in my right ear, had somehow managed to heal itself somewhat on the right side, but EXPLODE on the left! My left ear was swollen shut. I could barely hear anything, and my face was swollen as shit too. My mouth was [and still is] so swollen that I can't shut it all the way or chew really. I've lost 5 pounds this week already. Anyway, Dr. Toso put a tube into my ear to hold it open so we could get medicine inside of it. He said if I had waited another day or so I would have been in the hospital on an anti-biotic drip. He said I could have LOST my ear!!! Yes LOST MY FREAKIN EAR! AS IN MINUS ONE EAR! EARLESS AND HALF DEAF OKAY!!! *takes a deep breath* He put me on the strongest anti-biotic out there. So strong in fact, that it is killing the good germs along w the bad, therefore giving me not only a yeast infection in my hoo haa [vagina], but one in my mouth as well. So not only can I not chew food, but even if I wanted to it would taste like shit and be covered in slimy white goo anyway. Oh yeah, and from all this medicine, I haven't shit in a week! Woo hoo! Can't wait for that to happen...it's gonna be like giving birth to a 10 lb fucking baby!
Basically I am ridiculously incapacitated, and my mother has taken me home to nurse me. I have to take all diff kinds of medicine a zillion times a day, and she was to soak my ear for 2 hours daily. I've missed so much school that I wrote my teacher 3 e-mails asking for an extention on her course, and she wrote me back 2 sentences. "Come see me next week. Hope you feel better." WHAT THE FUCK LADY. She obviously didn't believe me that I was really sick. I'll still be fucking sick next week. Stupid fucking whore. Now I'm so worried I won't get that B- in math now. I could get kicked out of school all stemming back to this fucking infection I have. My entire body is working to fight the infection. I can barely even walk too much.
*Le sigh* On top of all of this Kim is being her usual dumb ass self. She gave me shit about taking me to the doctor's the one day. Then she didn't want to take me to get my medicine at the pharmacy either b/c she wanted to get high w her friend Katie b4 work. It was the only time I asked her to do this! And I've done it for her sooooo many times before. What an ungrateful bitch. After everything my family has done for her.
Gosh, I can't type anymore. I took a pain pill and my mom brought me some tea w whiskey in it. I better shorten things up a bit here. So Kim invited over all these ppl even tho I was fucking on my death bed and my mom was over at my apartment taking care of me. AJ tried to pick a fight w Josh and it was horrible. The next day [aka this morning] my mom and I had a 3 hr talk w Kim. My mom took the mommy approach, but boyyyy did I rip into Kim. Oh yeah, I dug my nails in and wouldn't let go. She was pretty surprised.
I am very emotional and moody needless to say. Josh hasn't called me like he said he would. He called me this afternoon and we talked for like 3 mins. I know he's worked VERY hard taking care of me all week, but he was the one who said he'd callme like 3 times a day while I was gone. He was the one who was about to shit his pants at the thought of being apart from me for 4 days. I could really use a phone call right now from him or Katie or Shaun or ANYBODY. Ruya and Alex called me earlier, but that was in the afternoon. The night does something to you when your sick...it always seems so much worse at night.
I have so much on my mind. I just need to get better first.
