Officially, it's a background viral infection (which I went "Awhatna?", and he explained it's a flu that's just been hanging around) and my ears are slightly pink (a possibly bacterial infection).

Hence, I've been given a short course of antibiotics for the ears, and recommended painkiller and rest for the flu.

ETA: On the good side, the internet makes me feel much better. I'm currently giggling at [livejournal.com profile] baggers Angel/BtVS mood icons, and staring at [livejournal.com profile] dinanimo's scans of Beyonce.

Current thinking - which is to say, they'll think something else in a year or two - is that everyone takes too many antibiotics and we're all becoming immune to the ones we have, and that antibiotics are no good against viruseses anyway because [technical stuff that went in one ear and out the other, something to do with 'flu not being an, um, a biotic. Or something].

However, if the antibiotics for your ear happen, just happen, to fix your 'flu too ... then yay!

I don't have much faith in 'rest', if sleep cured anything, I'd be bounding with health! It stops you feeling shitty, I suppose. But only temporarily.

I hope you feel better soon!
