It tastes like burning

I really do have an ear infection. I have two actually. True story...

My hearing has been muffled in my left ear since last Thursday because of the lovely head cold I had last week. So, I scheduled a doctor's appointment for today and last night, my right ear starts, hurting. When I say hurting, I mean hurting like a nasty little bitch. So bad, that I was getting dizzy and it felt like I just got off a merry-go-round going 50 mph. So bad, I was in tears.

So, I tell my doc about that this morning and he said "oh, you had a case of vertigo." So, the U2 song has been stuck in my head all damn day.

"Hello, hello...
(Hola!)
O'Rear had vertigo...
(Donde esta?)"

So, he gives me Allegra D, prednesone and anantibiotic. But, this is unlike any antibiotic I've ever seen. It's in powder form and it's only one dose, instead of several over a week. You add water and chug it. So I did. It said it was Cherry-Banana flavor but it tasted suspiciously like shit. I had my doubts.

So, after I take it, I look at the package, and notice the side effects: (see list below)

12% - diarrhea/loose stools
4% - nausea
1% - headache
1% - vomiting

I dont' know which one I want yet. I'm rooting for headache and vomiting. I always root for the underdog.
