MIA - I'm back :)
Susan Mouw:
I know I've been missing in action the last couple of weeks. I've been fighting a nasty sinus infection that just refuses to go away. I just finished round 2 of 10 day course of antibiotics and prednisone, and still have a head stuffed full of cotton. Unfortunately, it has also completely blocked my right ear and I've lost my hearing in that ear - temporarily, I hope.
Headed back to the ENT tomorrow (Monday), but I'll get busy this week and get caught up with everything. We have some new members, a couple of Meet Reports (and updated points), and updates to the website gallery that I'll be working on this week.
I was waiting until it was done to make this announcement, but I'll just drop this quick hint. :) One of the things I've been working on offers some really nice merchandise (mugs, t-shirts, hoodies)....And that's all I'm saying now.
Have fun with your gorgeous Ams, folks! Looks like some of the states are loosening up the AI requirements and some of the shows are coming back. Let's keep our fingers crossed for all the great Fall shows coming up!

Sorry to hear you have been under the weather. I sympathize with you. I had the same thing about 3-4 weeks ago. We make a pair, mine was the left ear. The hearing has returned and I am almost back to normal. (Normal for me-I don't know if that is good or bad). Prayers for a speedy recovery.

Glad to see you alive Susan. I hope you get back on the mend soon. With our humidity I can't imagine how difficult it is to get comfortable and breath fully in this summer heat. I hope you the best, Sooner than later.
Gordon, glad you are doing better. Any advice for Susan? We might be able to find her some medicinal "shine" if you think that might help? My grandmother was a stanch Baptist and would never dream of taking a drink. But she always kept a bottle of whiskey and rock candy for medicine and would offer that to the family as needed. Some of her other old time remedies were not nearly as normal.

Don, in my case no good advice. Just eardrops and suffer!
Susan Mouw:
You two always put a smile on my face! :)
Well, we have a diagnosis now. It's called Meniere's Disease and is controlled through medication. Not really what I wanted to hear, but at least we can move forward.
I go back in two weeks to see how much my hearing has been impacted. Kinda enjoying the self-imposed peace and quiet, tho! lol
