Hello everyone,
First, I've just got to say that this forum has been a Godsend to me over the past couple of years. I'm nearly *insane* with HA, and when I feel like I'm going completely mad -- usually after a session with Dr. Google -- I come here to search out similar maladies and get -- I hope -- some reassurance.
Now, to to current insanity :)
Last night, before I went to bed, I noticed a slight pain in my neck, on the right side, about where you feel that long muscle when you tense your neck (off to the right a bit from the Adam's Apple). This morning, the pain was a little stronger (probably a 2 on a 10 scale) and it felt like it covered a bit wider of a region. Also, my ear was very, very stuffy and I'd started to get some phlegm discharge at the back of my throat.
As the day's progressed, I *think* the pain is fading some, and I definitely feel like the ear is "opening up" some -- there's this airy sensation in my ear canal, though there's still a sense of blockage.
I'm hoping that this sounds like some sort of a sinus infection to you people? I just recovered from a pretty heavy cold last week -- my wife is still making her way through the same cold.
Once again, thanks for all the passive reassurance this forum has given me over the years.
Mike
