Tablets worked thank goodness and the ear ache is all gone. It is so cold and windy here at present that I am trying to be extra careful so that it does not come back.

Thanks for the well wishes.

Thanks everyone

I have both antibiotics and drops so hopefully this will clear up as fast as it arrived.

I hate the feel of the drops and it has given me a whole new perspective on how someone losing their hearing must feel. It nearly drove me mad last night so I am hoping for a better night tonight. The drugs may help with any luck.

Thanks for the well wishes.

I seem to get a couple a year.

Ear muffs are worth investing in. They stop the wind aggravating it.

Get well soon.

Hi Katten
You need to do whatever you used to do for your kids. Either drops or antibiotics, take some pain killers and go to bed and have a sleep. I know how it hurts so it is okay to have a little cry. You should be a new woman in a couple of days.
