How am I?

I felt really rough all day yesterday. I couldn't smell anything, and couldn't taste my food. The pressure on my left ear was considerable, and very distracting. I felt horrible when I got up. Since then I've been moving my head into some very exotic positions, to relieve the pressure on my ear. I could feel something moving against my ear-drum, and the pressure has lessened. I think some of the rubbish has drained away. I don't feel as poorly as I did yesterday.
