That sounds like the name for some kind of flower, doesn't it?

My mother has been having a bit of trouble from her ears. She says it is connected with swimming so much, something she dearly loves as a form of exercise. At some point she got an infection. While that seems to have been treated successfully enough, she still has lingering headaches. Near as the doctors can tell, it's stress related, though it seems like some kind of issue that was awakened by the ear infection. I personally suspect it's more complex than just a stress issue, but treating the stress gives symptomatic relief.

Pray she finds some relief, but that she also discern the underlying cause.

Absolutely brother.
Prayers coming your/her way.

I had a series of headaches maybe a year or so ago. They were severe enough for me to see my doctor about. She said it was probably stress headaches. I didn't think it was, but soon after they went away. Maybe it was just a phase.

I also had swimmer's ear once, when I was maybe 7th grade. It was mostly tolerable until I laid down, when ear fluid would shift and put pressure on the infected area. It made sleep wonderful, let me tell you.
