Lifehacker to the rescue!

“The man flu is usually accompanied by a lack of sympathy from females, which further advances the adverse symptoms of the man flu.” (Urban Dictionary) 🙂
Sympathy? From women when you have a cold? That and a a couple of bucks will get you a large coffee at Starbucks. What you do is wait until it hits her and she’s a sniveling wreck that won’t even get out of bed to get a cup of tea. Lots of comments like “you look awful dearest, perhaps you should get a makeover or a new hairstyle.” You’ll likely end up sleeping in the bathtub for a month, but the amusing satisfaction might be worth it.
That may set back your ear infection recovery some… suggest taking antihistamines to combat mucous buildup, & be careful blowing nose, so as not to pop that ear drum again. R&R time.
p.s., in all seriousness, have you been tested for allergies, or had your current accommodations tested for mold? Could be both the ear infection & current malaise are due to that. Maybe you should move again, if your health has been worse since moving to current digs.

Yes. There is a cold, and then the Man Cold, however I am usually the subject/victim of a far worse infliction- the He Man Cold ©
The misery and suffering is beyond description.
