A Sinus Of The Times
Hospital, Lafayette, Louisiana, USA | Healthy | December 25, 2017
(I suffer from chronic sinus infections, having experienced ear infections with regularity since I was a toddler. However, the word “suffer” is actually quite a stretch. I’m chatting about it with the doctor checking me out; who initially doesn’t seem convinced anything is wrong.)
Me: “They never really bothered me, though. I was in for a check-up when I was two, and the doctor kept asking my mom if I’d been fussy, crying, sleeping badly, rubbing at my ears or anything. She said I’d been fine and asked why I’d be doing anything like that, and the doctor said I had the worst ear infection he’d EVER seen!”
Doctor: *giving me an are-you-serious look* “You have the worst sinus infection I’ve ever seen.”
Me: *cheerfully* “Told ya!”
