Today was an extremely strange day for me. I woke up at 5am with intense pressure behind my hear. It hurt so bad I couldn't get back to sleep. All I could do was lay there in pain waiting for the doctors office to open. When I finally got there it turns out they didn't have any openings until tomorrow. They told me I could try one of the other places here in lynchburg though. I ended up going there and they had a 4-5 hour wait time. I wasn't going to do that either. I decided to just call back and set an appointment for friday at the campus office but during that time of trying the other one, they ended up calling in another doctor. So I had called back just in time and they were able to get me in within the hour. It was a huge blessing because I was hurting extremetly bad. Turns out I have an intense ear infection and the drain valve in my ear is swolen and clogged. There is lots of fluid and pressure building up behind my ear. There wasn't really any quick fixes she could do though and She just prescribed some antibiotics and some ibuprofen. As the day moved along I either got used to the pain or it subsided some. But I was able to function much better after around 10:40 or so. It was good too because Allie and I had a meeting with a professor to go and talk about some stuff. That ended up going very well I think. We ended up having to be a little late for class though as the meeting took longer then expected. I had an exam in my class after that one too so I had to study a bit before going to that class. I never had a chance to pickup my prescription until around 6:00 tonight. I did have a chance to sit and eat lunch with a guy from my prayer group. That was pretty cool. I also had to meet a friend to help with a quick computer issue after my test got out. I was still busy today even with my sickness. I am going to try and go to sleep earlier then usual tonight though. I hope I don't wake up in pain again.
