About Daimeera

Hello there!
I'm a 21 year old female from Nova Scotia, Canada. I'm not as active on this site as I once was, but I will almost certainly reply to private questions sent to me.
Let's see, about me. I've been diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia Syndrome, Clinical Depression, as well as some other related mental and physical illnesses. Despite this, I'm happier now than I can ever remember being.
I've been a vegan since August 2007. In other words, I do my best not to consume anything of animal origin, ranging from the obvious (meat), to the somewhat obvious (eggs and dairy), to the not-so-obvious (honey, wool, silk, and more). I love this life. I have so much more appreciation for everything and everyone around me, and I feel so at peace with myself and the world. I wake up everyday and know that I'm making a difference. It's been a huge turning point in my life.
I recently graduated from high school after an extra three years due to my illness. It was a long road, but it felt amazing to walk across that stage. An added bonus was having the 15th highest average (over my high school career) out of 258 students!
I intend to pursue a career in psychology, first obtaining my BA, and then attending graduate school in order to study for my PhD. It's a little daunting at times, but I know it will be worth it. I want to help people, plain and simple. I want to make a difference. I want to change the world. And I believe I can, if only in a small way.
I think that's me in a nutshell. I also enjoy writing, knitting, multiple other artistic endeavors (including drawing, photography, music, and more), web design, and many other things. So, feel free to drop me a message if you think there's something I can help with.
Psst, guess what? I, like everyone else, have my very own message board! You can visit it here.

I don't know why but my left ear hurts occassionally. It is a sharp low, dull pain. I think I might have causes it because I got the feeling of not being able to hear from one ear- the feeling you get if you dunked your head in water and one of your ear seems to be cloggy. I pinched my nose and blew from my nose- but since I pinched it air came out of my ear. (ever happen to anyone of you?) but it is weird i know but it helps, my ear didn't clog up anymore but now, my ear gets this pain. I'm afraid it is something bad, does anyone know about this?
You might have wax buildup. If so, the doctor will probably syringe out your ears. Wax buildup can cause pain as well as the sensation of having plugged ears, so that would be my best guess.
I agree with the others; you should see a doctor. If it is a buildup of wax, the cure sounds worse than it is. Basically, the doctor sticks the type of a large syringe into your ear and pushes water out, gently forcing it into your ear canal so that it flushes out the gunk inside. It can be a tiny bit painful--more uncomfortable than anything--but it's quick and easy.
Best of luck.
