Linda,
It's good to hear from you again. I'm sorry about your ear aches. I have the itching and buring and aching in my AN ear and the doctor always says it is nothing. I usually take Naproxin 500mg for it. Imitrex hasn't helped that pain for me and like Capt Deb I am now taking the shots. The pills made me sick as did the nasal spray. I put warm compresses on my ear and lie down on my AN side until the pain goes away. I think all of the cold weather you have been having hasn't helped.
I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
Hugs,
BrendaO

Linda: I was thinking of you last week, looking over the 'posts'
So glad you wrote in, hope the facial issues cleared up..
Once in awhile I get bad itching down in the ear canal,
But the pain I get(rarely) isn't excruciating;
Hang in there, give the doc a call Monday if you can wait.
Let us know what happens...
(funny, as I'm writing this my ear is starting to hurt.. sympathy pains ?)
Take care, Nancy

I want to thank you all for replys. It still hurts I took the imitrex last night but it didnt help. I have to be carefull with all the pill I normally take for heart and diabetis. What are the shots that help you. I am already shooting for diaetis. whats one more shot. If it helps. The DR. saiid that Ibprofen might help and sudafed. so i got some sudafed today. But still have the pain..It hurts so bad..

Hi Linda:
Maybe you have an ear infection and it is nothing AN related. They hurt, I had one once and my ear did
drain with it. Is there a local urgent care you can go to? I hope it is something easy and treatable.
