I don't have an ear infection. After the MD poked me in the face and looked up my nose, he decided the dizziness, nausea, pain behind my ears, etc was because my sinus infection never cleared up. He gave me a script for a new antibiotic and something I used in the past for the lithium acne (I have it again). He ordered blood work that I had drawn along with what my neuro wanted. My electrolytes may be off from mixing Advil and lithium, and that may be contributing to the dizziness. IDK. Hopefully the sinus infection clears up and/or whatever's going on turns up and I start feeling better soon... I've done my part.

After that I saw my pdoc who thinks I'm doing extremely well with everything going on. She was concerned because I hadn't taken ANY Klonopin Thursday or Friday because I had been taking 1/2-1mg a day, and she doesn''t want me to go through withdrawls. I had not thought about that, so I took 1/2mg when I got home.
She mentioned resuming the lithium if I have an episode, but I told her that that wasn't an option because I have to be able to take NSAIDs for pain. So, we will have to find other ways to manage problems when they arise.

I was able to get everything done that I needed to, but I paid for it/am paying for it as usual. I can't begin to sort out why I may be leaning to the right until I can get some rest and eliminate causes like overuse and fatigue. MS is complicated. I'm not doing anything this weekend.

The cats are all behaving just TERRIBLY!!! I'm ready to drown all three of them in the lake across the street!!! Just think about anything you would NOT want your cat to do, and they are doing it...
