I've had a raging cold and bad chest for about 3 weeks thanks to the darling children who keep bringing it home from school and nursery. On Monday my ear felt really sore, by Tuesday it was sheer agony and I couldn't hear or balance properly. I somehow managed to drive to GP who said its the worst ear infection he's seen. He's prescribed antibiotics and strong painkillers and since then I've been bedridden. The pain has been horrific and goes all the way up the side of my head and face. I haven't been able to eat or even go for per by myself. I'm too dizzy to even sit up. For the last two days there has been a continuous stream of yellow gunk tinged with blood pouring out my ear. Thankfully this has slowed today. Thing is I have a nearly 5 months old baby who I am still breastfeeding!! Please tell me this will go away soon, or even that ill be able to get out of bed soon?? I'm starting to worry that the dizziness, sickness, and deafness won't go! Help
