My son is learning a hard lesson about standing up for himself at work.
My son developed strep throat but delayed due to work.
He is on Humira for Crohns and is more susceptible to some infections.
He started getting better but the strep invaded his ear, on a Saturday.
His left ear was bleeding.
Finally got to the doctor. 4 drugs to deal with it.
He now has no hearing in left ear.
He sees a doctor today for his ear. Fingers crossed that these days didn't result in permanent hearing loss.
It would suck if the first huge lesson about not putting work before his health cost him half his hearing.
