Okay well here is the update:

I went to the doctor and she said that she saw no infection, but the symptoms I am describing seem like vertigo.

She said she did notice some pressure on my eardrums which means I probably have fluid in my middler or inner ear. She told me to continue taking the over the counter decongestant, drink plenty of fluids, and she prescribed for me some medicine called antivent or something like that. I cant remember anymore, since I still need to go to walgreens to pick it up. She said I dont have to take it all the time, and I can actually hold on to it- its for the dizziness, and I might get drowsy from it.

The good thing is I havent gotten dizzy since monday- so maybe i wont need to take it.

I was hoping for some antibiotics, but there is no infection!!

My ears are feeling much better now that I have started taking the decongestant, but now I kind of have some pressure between my eyes!

Hopefully I will get all better soon!!
