I've had pericondritis -an ear infection- for two weeks now. I have gone to different doctors, and they've given me antibiotics and analgesics, but things just doesn't seem to work out. I'm in a lot of pain. I can't sleep, I can't be. Today I'm going to some other doctor. But I know that if things keep going like this, they'll have to remove some of the cartilage- that means: they are going to remove part of my ear. I'm really hopeless. Pain has taken the best of me. I've done some healing spells in the past, but now I just can't seem to focus. It's really difficult for me to center with all that pain. I was wandering if one of you could do a healing spell for me? But I'd be grateful if you just send happy thoughts... I really need all the help I can get. Thanks!!! -- Pablo

Pablo - My thoughts go out to you for a speedy recovery.

Pablo, dont be hopeless. Its a hard thing, but try to think the more positive you can on it. We will do the same. Big hug.

Pablo: about two or three weeks ago, did you hear some bad news? Did someone tell you something that you would have preferred not to hear? (You don't say whether the ear is the left or the right one.) Or did you overhear a conversation that hurt you? If you could find the cause of this ear infection, you could relive this whole scene in your mind, but by changing your attitude to it. By not allowing yourself to be so affected by it. You could "go back in time". Act out the whole scene in your mind - or even more actively by actually setting up physically the whole scene in your room. Forgiveness would be the next vital and essential step. In the meantime, I will send you my prayers.

((((((((((((((((((Pablo)))))))))))))))) Eearache of any sort is the pits. Sending you kind thoughts and love and light.

i just worked on your ear. hope it helped! (..and diana gave you some very good advice)

skytwig	21 Apr 2003
Reiki to you. Also, adding to Diana's great advice, is there something you don't want to hear, someone's decision or someone's voice? were you on the phone with someone when it began? Did you hear something as a child that troubles you? It is also near the third eye and the throat chakra issues of speaking and seeing. Accupuncture also comes to mind. Meridians are all through that area.

I hope you will get some relief soon Pablo. But also consider some natural infection fighters that can help in addition to regular anitbiotics. I I ever find myself in a situation where I don't seem to be getting better, I will add all of these in capsule or pill form: Olive Leaf Oregano Garlic Also, eating lots peppers & onions at the same time can help make your body a not very inviting host to whatever germs want to hang on.

How're you feeling today, Pablo?

le-mat	24 Apr 2003
hi you all, and thanks for your advice. The infected ear is the left one, does that mean I have problems/I argued with a woman? I have been thinking of a psychological cause since it began, but I just couldn't find it. I'm positive it exists. This infection is a very rare thing, it has to have some message!

le-mat	24 Apr 2003
today the doctor removed the bandages... and it hurted like hell. I've never suffered so much pain in my whole life. (I had a back surgery two years ago). The tests were ready, so they could give me the right antibiotic. The bacteria, pseudomona aeuroginosa, it's very rare. It seldom attacks animals (why me!!!). In 10% of the cases, it mutates to resist antibiotics. (i hope i'm not in that 10%). The cartilage in my ear is destroyed, that means that when I heal, they'll have to do plastic surgery to recover its shape. And all this beacuse a lauzy piercing!!! These last two weeks were the worst of my life. I have to find the meaning to all this, otherwise i'll go crazy!!!

Diana	24 Apr 2003
Just hang on there! (((((((Pablo))))))) This sounds like hell. I didn't realise you had had a piercing. If I have any ideas about the meaning of all this, I'll let you know. I will keep you in my thoughts a lot. Try and visualise a stream of white light flowing all around your head and face and ears about 15 centimetres around you. It will help get your focus away from the ear.

Belladonna	24 Apr 2003
le-mat, oh, you have my sympathy. Please know you are not alone in your experience. While the type of bacteria that infected your ear may be very rare, I think everybody goes through excruciating experiences at some point in their lives. I know I have and I've wanted to cry in pain and despair and the unfairness of it all. I don't want it to come across as misery loves company, but as humaness. Everybody goes through something they believe they cannot bare- everybody. I send you love and light. You have strenght within you and love all around you. Good luck!

Pablo~ I've sent you a pm, and am doing what I can to help. I had a piercing too. I had my nose pierced (septum) and they warned me that if it got infected my nose might collapse. It didn't, but of course they told me this AFTER it was done... I'm so sorry this happened to you.

le-mat	25 Apr 2003
thanks all of you again for your support!!!. Tonight I did some magickal work to stop the infection. I don't know if it worked, but it helped me to keep in mind the sacred things. My life was pretty mundane in the last few months... I don't even read Tarot now... maybe this is a strong warning against that. It could be many things or it could be nothing, but i guess we as human beings try to assign meaning to "special" (or painful) events, cause if we don't... then all the pain would be for nothing. Right now I'm very confused... I have hope now, but maybe the next minute I'll be in despair. Nevertheless, I'll have in mind all your advices. Thanks again Love, Pablo

DarkElectric	25 Apr 2003
I know this sounds odd, but it might just be that this is a 'Wake up call" of sorts, to encourage you to remember that there is more than just a mundane world out there, and to get in touch with your spiritual self. Pain tells us something is wrong somewhere. What I am getting is this~ maybe it isn't something that you heard, but instead something you are NOT listening to, such as the call from the spiritual realm. It seems as if you are one of the innumerable people who are 'Waking Up' to the spiritual conciousness which is enlightening people all over the world. If you try to deny this, and attempt to crawl back into the cocoon of the mundane, it's quite possible that there will be physical manifestations which will alert you to what is happening, so you can get back on the spiritual track.
