    How Long Does It Take to Get Over an Ear Infection That Caused Tinnitus?

    Amoxicillin is likely not ototoxic: not found yet on ototoxic drugs list (as the one below) and largely used to cure bacterial infections of babies and young children (like media otitis). http://www.nvrc.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/Drugs-that-Cause-HL.pdf

    The Positivity Thread

    Brilliant initiative Demi! Here is a small contribution: when you have "a head full of dreams" and you spend time and energy living "adventure of lifetime", there's not a lot of place for T. Look at this guy singing, playing piano and guitare, in a "amazing day". Chris Martin, Coldplay leader...
