This past friday I went to the doctor bc I was having trouble hearing out of my left ear, come to find out I have an ear infection, which they gave me antibiotics for. Well after I went it starting getting worse with the pain and swelling and all that, not fun at all, it hurts like a mo fo :crying2: Well last night I woke up to a sharp pain in my ear which my guess is my ear drum ruptured/perferated due to all the pressure behind it. Although it helped with the pain my ear is now draining not to mention I have a hole in my ear drum now. And I can hardly hear out of that ear due to all of this. Well I have my CNA state testing on thursday and IDK what to do? Its been hard for me to study, i can hardly concentrate bc of the pain, but I have managed to get half my studying done. I know I still have 3 days, but as of right now im still in pain and I know it takes a few weeks for ear drums to heal. I dont want to have to reschedule my test but what if I get pulled to do BP, I cant stick the stethescope ear pieces in my ear with an ear infection especially when Im in pain. But what if I call tomorrow and then by thursday everthing is fine, then I rescheduled for no reason. Would it be better to wait till Wednesday to call if its not better or would it be better to reschedule regaurdless? Any advice would be helpful, Thanx
