I am very scared right now I am having a panic attack I am shaking and crying. I have held it together for eight days of this sickness and I am falling apart now, the antibotic is not working and I am no better and I think its throat cancer, if it were not cancer the medicine would of worked wouldnt it? The nurse at the clinic was not too helpful she said "the medicine should be working by now" she said I could come back in but there was not too much more they can do, that was not good too hear I am reaching out for medical help and its not there, my ear is on fire and my voice is gone, all the symptoms and its so very scary.
I know what the next step is I have to go to a ENT doctor, ears nose and throat and they have to probe my ear which will be so painful and then stick a camera down my throat which I can just imagine how painful that will be and I probably cannot get an appt for a few weeks anyway even if I did have the courage to go, thats the only way they can diagnose laryanx cancer.
I have taken antibotics in the past and thankfully they always worked this time they are not and they said they would, they are making me very very tired, I can live with the loss of the voice but the ear pain is so scary and relentless, I am going to try olive oil in the ear as Carmie suggested, when my husband gets home he will get it, I have to stop panicking now its not helping anything and making me feel so much worse! I went to the doctor and did everything right and still no relief from this.
Do antibotics make anyone else tired? did anyone ever have to go the whole ten days before they felt better? Do they sap you're energy? My body aches but I have no fever, this is very strange. I fear cancer and I cannot have anyone putting a camera down my throat just the thought sends me into panic that is why I am panicking I know whats coming. I am sorry too vent I am so alone and scared and sick, I wish I was younger and I would have more strength to handle this. I am so scared.
