 I have nothing to say...

One way to feel un-sick is diverting one's mind. There is precious little one can do with lights off and a sister sharing the room. Basically, playing the violin is ruled out for that same reason. Sigh. So is reading because it needs for the lights to be on. So, here I am blogging instead because sleep eludes me. SIGH. Oh, in case you didn't realize, that was a bigger sigh.

So, I'm down with a nasty, nasty viral fever. And this time I have an ear infection too. While I'm quite adept at handling a running nose and watering eyes, I don't know how to deal with a leaking ear! Going deaf is the last thing I want to happen to me! How will I learn to play the violin or even listen to music? Yeah, I do tend to get dramatic when I'm unwell. I mean, come on, a little ear infection doesn't make one deaf... I hope.

So, now what new things do I tell you guys about? I have a friend who thinks I always have something interesting happening in my life to talk about. Then he admits that it's the dramatic way in which I narrate that makes it interesting. I don't know whether to take that as a compliment or what. Does he mean I have banal things happening in my life but I spice it up while narrating? Banal things in life is not good. My gift of gab, well, I think I could get smug about it. But I do agree that I have much talent at going on talking / writing about NOTHING. Like I am doing right now. And I notice you are still reading.

I was telling Gowri earlier about my being unwell and what my friends have been suggesting. One said he guzzles down 4 Patiala whisky pegs when he has a cold. Another friend offered rum because it's a warm drink. Then I met another friend who usually asks me to draw the thorn by a thorn and have chilled beer. Now I think he has finally started liking me and wants me to live, so he made me have brandy with hot water. I felt well enough to watch Roddick v/s Tipsarevic and Spain v/s Russia after that.

At home, I got a big time lecture from mom. Then she made me kaadha, though I told her I could make it on my own, but she thought it would be a lot easier if she made it herself rather than me yelling to ask how much clove and how much adrak and how much kaali mirch. I had that and felt a little better. Then I had a tablet to bring the fever down. It usually makes me very drowsy but my ear and back are hurting so much that I can't even sleep. And sitting is more comfortable than lying down. And I don't think I am feeling any better.

Okay, now my sister is super annoyed because my clacketing on the keyboard is disturbing her. Besides, I have spoken about NOTHING a bit too much. What? And you're still reading???

Haha! By saying you have nothing to say, you still could manage to say so much, typical Nova! I am sure many must have already advised you about the do's and don'ts so I would just say that we all love you and would look forward to see you fitter all over again.

i have herbal way of protecting myself. may i offer you future guidance? To tell you the truth many so called herbals are used in cooking.Ginger, garlic all act as anti-biotics. Garlic u can take it as garlic pearls from the medicals or get it home made by putting three to four cloves of garlic in the boiling water just before it reaches boiling point so as to make it less pungent and palatable.

Being my own dowctor is my way of life. i have written about this in my organic farming blog.

Also it helps one to know what are the essential nutrients one needs to boost one's immune system. Dont worry about ear blockage there is one herbal exactly to remove ear blockage.Drink boiled water to be safe.

I think it is Better put up a blog on herbal medicine. till then take care

Dunno why but I have a mental block about popping these popular pills like crocin, vicks action, d cold etc.

Thankee Dr Anil, Gowri, Manisha and Geet. Wishes and hugs are therapeutic.

I had some weird experiences last night. I shut my eyes and felt I was on a huge ship stuck in a whirlpool and when I opened them I felt the bed rotating! Took me a few seconds to realize where I was. Second time I saw a red beam in darkness. Swear I wasn't on acid!

Sigh! With the rest of your world Dhaval, here are my best wishes for your speedy recovery.
As your saying nothing, I think another visit to Ganeshji's branch office is imminent. This time the new cabin will have the photo of an irrepressible 14-year-old with a naughty smile...

HI DHAVAL, GET WELL SOON BABY. WE WANT OUR EXHUBERENT DHAVAL BACK SOON..!!

HERE ARE SOME SUGGESTIONS MY DOCTOR GAVE ME...

Put few drops of garlic juice JUST INSIDE the infected ear. Use blow dryer from about 12 to 15 inches from your head, this will remove any water trapped in the Eustachian tube.
Take vitamin C to boost your immune system, it will help you to combat infection.
Increase Zinc intake, it reduces ear infection. Eat a healthy diet with lots of calcium in it. Avoid processed foods and hydrogenated oils.
HOPE THE ABOVE ADVICE HELPS HONEY..!!
