I posted a comment on a ~Discourse~ post that was disagreeing with part of the post's thesis and hello there, random anxiety that someone will yell at me over it.
NOOOOOOOOOO I CAN'T GET SICK I HAVE TWO DAYS OF CERTIFICATION DIVES THIS WEEKEND draining sinuses and scratchy throat is noooooooooo
i've woken up twice since i went to bed, once to change my pad and now a low blood sugar. i had to shove some honey in my face (gross) and eat my last granola bar, so now the only no-prep-required food i have is baby carrots. and now i'm cold and tired but im expecting a phone call so i can only go back to bed for a couple hours. bleh.
I ate ice cream this morning and it helped for a few minutes and then stopped helping gdi urgh ill go make myself tea
As soon as I get off work it's tea-and-honey until it comes out my ears. I will get my damn dive cert.
oh another thing annoying me is that alongside this cold my ears are also hellishly itchy on the inside. no amount of popping them has helped. aaargh
also @Imoyram you should find an eyedropper and put hydrogen peroxide in them for about 5 mins, either side. that'll kill germs in your ears.
(appears) Actually not true! Hydrogen peroxide's usefulness was vastly overstated by two guys who thought it was the secret cure for everything including cancer - it can kill some bacteria in the lab, but at much higher concentrations and exposure times than you'll get by putting it in your ears. source: I listen to too many medical history podcasts
interesting! i have a friend who swears by it; has had way fewer ear infections since she started doing that. i also find it helps! but perhaps it is placebo effect to some degree :P if nothing else, i find it helps clear out ear wax and gunk.
I'm sure I can get some high-concentration peroxide. I wanted to build a rocket anyway. Please don't do anything involving high-test peroxide.
Here's the actual source for hydrogen peroxide facts, if you are curious or just want to listen to a cool and informative podcast 8)
