Still unwell

It's been eight days since I've gotten sick with this dreaded cold. And this morning, my ears hurt. I haven't had an earache in a long time. So I decided to call my PCP and make an arrangement to see the Nurse tomorrow morning. If I had a car--or if my brother could get out of work--I would go today. So I've called my ride and scheduled the pick-up time. I'll let you know what happened at my doctor's office tomorrow afternoon, and if I get some medicine to pick up this weekend. Sunday's weather is 30 for the high with 80% chance of snow in the afternoon. So I hope to walk if it's warmish around 10 AM. I'll find out tomorrow when I check the Weather Channel's forecast.

I have no idea. When I bend down, they pop like I'm in an airplane.

@Janet357 I used Q-tips for my ears. But now I've got ear drops to clear them up.

@KristenH because my husband once had it but the reason why he had it was because he always cleaned his ears sometimes inserting sharp object.

I agree. I've read that with a cough, it'll linger over two weeks. Thanks Courtney.

I am sorry to hear that..sometimes those colds tend to linger or turn into something worse. I usually end up with a cough that lasts a few weeks after.

@KristenH I hope not. It sounds like you could have gotten a sinus infection though.
