Is it remotely under control yet, or...?

Nothing yet - healthcare is such a shambles here.
Ibuprofen's thankfully keeping down the pain, hopefully won't wreak too much havoc on my gastrointestinal system. Acetaminophen/paracetamol I don't want to risk overusing it.
Some decade back I had an ear infection that caused a series of 'suicide headaches' - I call them that because I would've been perfectly happy to pitch myself out a window to make the pain stop. Once it was so bad that I got slightly delirious and ended up wandering outside in the snow wearing just a nightgown.
