Argh... Lost My Hearing On My Left Ear...

sigh... lost my hearing on my left ear... can only hear ringing, buzzing and humming sounds... dunno wat's wrong... happened all of a sudden yesterday afternoon... since cant hear, decided to sleep early... hoping that things will be fine when i wake up 2day... alas... miracles dun happen all the time lor... or do they happen at all?!?!

told mum about it and she insisted that we either go hougang polyclinic or TTSH A&E... told her not to be so worried lah... at least it's only one side (my dark humour at work again)...

went to see the doctor at hougang polyclinic... he used some probe to check both ears... said the eardrums were intact... used the tuning fork to test... right side got humming sound... left side totally NOTHING... jialat sia... doc couldn't give any further diagnosis... APA INI?!?! oso not prescribing any medication cos referring me to the Ear, Nose and Throat specialist at TTSH... medications may just complicate things... wat is dat????? expect me to not have stereo sound for 2 days!!!!! crazy sia... but then again, it's the polyclinic, cheap cheap, diagnosis oso cheap cheap lor...

treebeard messaged me cos we agreed to go clubbing tonite... told him i dun have stereo sound, wont enjoy lor... only now then i realised how different life is with only one side of hearing... listening to radio, watching TV or even talking to someone is not the same at all...

was chatting with Melvin on MSN... told him wat happened cos he SMSed me yest nite to jio me for mahjong... joked dat with left side not hearing anything, i wont hear wat my left player says... "pong", "gong", "game" is blank to me and i will just go on and take my tile... and then kenna dio pa... hahahaha...

as at dis evening 6pm, a bit of sound is audible... hopefully the condition will continue to improve...

----------

treebeard called to ask how i'm doing... updated him on the latest... we're discussing about how come so many things happened lately... high fever for one week... IBS the next... and now hearing loss... wat next... he even said it's a sign of ageing... @#$%^&*... hahahahahaha...

----------

gonna stay home for the weekend to rest lor... wait until monday and see wat the specialist has to say... will continue to update my condition here...
