RN, Metoo, how about getting a little relief by using a blow dryer on the sore ear?

right now, metoo, lie down on a warm heating pad. set at the lowest setting so you don't burn your ear. that can help alot.

Right now, Metoo what about just putting some cotton (or tissue since you are at work) in your ear...so no draft can get it. Taking a couple of tylenol may help as well.

right now, metoo, line up three shots of tequila and down them. does that help with the pain? patients in the e.r. used to tell us their parents would blow cigarette smoke into their ears and it would help. i also remember something about wesson oil and saran wr....wait, that was for something else. never mind!

Right now, Metoo, go Greek with some Ouzo! You won't care about your ear, your face or your melting posture. (Hope you feel better! Aspirin will help.)

Right now, I know someone who swears by the old remedy of putting your own urine in your ear. No, I have never tried it.

Right now if your down 3 shots of tequila you will probably let someone put urine in your ear and then you have all basis covered.

Right now ... I'm catching a cold. I'm trying to fight it but I think it's going to win. I hate being sick!!! I had a neighbor who crushed garlic with olive oil and put it in her kids ears for ear aches. I'll take antibiotics any day!

Right a few minutes ago my husband called me from the pits at the NASCAR Truck Race in Texas and all I wanted to do is cry. He's having the time of his life and is happy and giddy like a little boy. I'm so happy for him but going crazy staying with my dad and brother. I love them but......

Right now as someone who has had continuous ear infections from the time I was about 4 months old til I was 16, and have had at least 1-2 a year since, I couldn't imagine letting anyone stick or blow something in my ears even when they aren't infected! I'd go with the heating pad and tylenol until you can get into the doctors office. Right now I am so restless tonight I don't know what to do with myself. I've tried reading, watching tv, working on beadwork, and playing on the computer. Maybe I should try some housework but I don't feel like that either, lol.

right now, physical went fine. my cholesterol is 146. dr. has no idea what my chest problem was the other day. i only asked about if kaiser would pay the entire ambulance bill (knowing a basic ambulance was 600 bucks for the first mile without any oxygen, meds, etc. 15 years ago!!) she told me if kaiser ordered it, they would pay it. she laughed and told me something like, "our clinic's response to a potential emergency is 'get them out of here fast!'" dd, dh and i had our flu shots and then went to our first super walmart (in gilroy). pretty huge, that's for sure! but we had to ask where everything was. we expected to find mops near the vacuums, but mops were in the grocery part of the store. we expected to find tuna near the canned meats and crackers near the chips and cookies, etc., but things were put all over the place. it was kind of cool, but way too huge for my senses. you could have put a superbowl stadium in there and had room for the parking lot! well, open house tomorrow. let's see if the 370+ lookie-loos on our eBay listing generates any actual people showing up from the bay area. our agent said her entire office is looking to see what happens, as they have never tried eBay or craigslist before. keep your eyes crossed! i've got my apple pie to bake and a pumpkin pie candle to light for the open house hours. one on saturday one on sunday. let's see if apple or pumpkin gets the best response
