crappy weekend

I woke up early to drive 2 hours to take my comp exam on Friday. Didn't sleep all night and I felt like crap. Stuffy nose and a bad cough. But I passed the test! My whole class passed, which hasn't happened in 3 years. So happy to be done with that.

Driving back I felt awful and ended up going to urgent care. I waited 2 hours to be told its just allergies. He said to continue my allergy meds because they're working? (despite this being my second time being sick in a month) and gave me Nasonex.

Cough gets worse and I don't sleep at all the last 2 nights. Decide this morning to go to a different urgent care. They did chest x-rays and told me its pneumonia. I got antibiotics and 2 steroids to help my lungs relax.

I knew doctor #1 was missing something. I'm happy I went back in because this could have gotten serious fast.

  • That sucks, but if you can pass a major test while that sick you are extra awesome!

  • Wow, that sucks. I would be pissed at the first office. I think urgent care is stupid anyways. They are always screwing stuff up.

    I agree but my doctor is only open 9-2 Monday through Thursday, so I have no time to go see her. And I'd have to wait forever there anyway. There's one here that is better than the others, I just didn't have the time to drive to it the first time.

    Yeah I'm pretty pissed. I for sure will not being going back to him.

  • UGH!  Feel better soon.
