He thinks I have pulsatile tinnitus. Did not go swimming of flying befor this happened. He wants me to see and ENT first. ENT office says I need an appointment with the Audiologist first. First available appointment with an audiologist is May 17. BP is like 124/68 plus I excercise 5 days a week.

I've used a Q-tip for 58+ years. I grew up on a farm so I dealt with a lot of debris in my life, so I think I may know little about using a Q-Tip the proper way. Plus he found nothing that would suggest an infection or trauma when he check them. Right now typing this, I have no pulsing in my ear. It's really weird. When I went to bed last night it went away. This morning it started back up.
So the worm in the ear seems like the most obvious diagnosis.

Funny how my May 17th audiology test all of the sudden got moved up to tomorrow. Hmm...I'm guessing having a possible anuerysm may have sped the process up.
Having diagnostics moved up can be good AND can be scary. Makes us nervous when the doc calls us out of the blue to discuss treatment changes and or new tests...

Not exactly sure.
Okay.........I'm am old. Had a dentist appointment today.

First they need to repair their water squirter, my ear and back of my neck were dripping wet by the end and there is nothing like laying there with water running down the side of your head, down your neck and into your hoodie.

Second, reason I'm old, the hygienist had the chair too high apparently. When she told me to turn my head to her, she leaned in and over half my face was engulfed in her chest...........and I didn't care for it. I didn't say anything because I didn't want to sound creepy and thought if I moved my head at all, it would be creepier yet. So I sat there hoping for that part to get over quickly. So I can officially say that I don't like having my face in random women's bewbs (my wife's I enjoy, but not others).

Was going to replace the guts of my toilet but ended up getting a whole new toilet. That was fun to put in.
I have found toilets to be fairly easy from a process stand point but damn are they deceivingly heavy. Also making sure you get it on the ring just right.

Time to send in the leach to get the worm.

I hear you. There's something about the familiarity that is comforting.

It wasn't that bad, but yeah the worst part was getting it up my stairs. I thought it wasn't going to fit at first because I have baseboard heating, but it did. I have to get a smaller vanity now.

When I took the old one off, I saw water in the drain pipe so there's a p trap, which is completely redundant.

I have a super small bathroom so my next project is knocking out a wall and putting a new shower in, but that will have to be a late summer project.
