Seriously no wonder people abuse this stuff. I have gotten so much absolutely back breaking work done today and I’m not even slightly tired. I cleared the rest of the BS blizzard snow from the rest of my driveway (had only shoveled the sidewalk before), plus the curb all the way to the nearest storm drain. I rearanged my living room, reorganized my whole service van, I finally swapped in that new clothes dryer that has been sitting in the garage for a month, and all that is after a full day of physical work. I would have normally been tired 3 times over by now. I’m am resting right now not because I feel like I need to but because I don’t want to accidentally actually cripple myself by acting like I’m superman. If only this stuff didn’t completely destroy your body in the long term.
Damn, what kind of inner ear issue? Is it impacting your balance? Hearing?
It started with weird ballance issues and then suddenly yesterday I woke up almost entirely deaf in one ear. Went to the doc and they said there’s no sign of infection. Best guess is some inflammation in my inner ear somewhere but they can’t know for sure without getting me in to see a specialist. They said it would have probably gone away on it’s own eventually but if the hearing loss in particular did happen to stick around for too long then it could become permanent so they’re hitting me with a steroid hammer just to make sure.
Wow, that is the most see what sticks approach I’ve seen for a while. Definitely a good time to try the steroids, how effective has it been? When you say deaf was it like everything was underwater, like a blocked ear, like low volume? Or something else entirely? My family has a history of hearing loss but it was the mundane gradual loss for the most part.
