Guess I'll just wait it out. I read online that they don't really try to give antibiotics for ear aches because of the body getting immune, but I won't goto the hospital til the weekend anyways.
Sleepin' is gonna be the shitty part. woke up this morning with my whole head throbbing, no matter which way I layded. :{ ear aches suck

The antibiotic thing is mainly regarding babies/children. If you're an adult and not prone to ear infections, you almost certainly need one. It sounds like your problem is with your middle ear, which shouldn't have fluid in it, just air. It ruptures, the fluid drains, it closes, then the whole thing happens again. There is a possibility of no infection, just fluid, but I will bet you've got an infection.
In a former life I worked with ears/hearing and you really don't want to let an inner ear infection get too nasty or spread. Google "mastoiditis" and see what can happen. We always had to admit several people a year who didn't get treatment and let things go for too long.
