“30 year old female, sore throat”
After 6 days of an extremely sore throat, I finally broke down and went to the doctor. Between the sore throat, other cold symptoms and lack of sleep, I’m not very functional. Unfortunately, as it’s a holiday, G and I were forced to use the ER at our local hospital. It’s only the 2nd time I’ve ever been in an ER and the wait was looooonnngg. We left 3 hours later with confirmation that I do not have strep throat and not much else. Oh well, at least I know I don’t need antibiotics. While there, I was referred to as “30 year old female, sore throat”. Oh, and they made sure to “diagnose” my pregnancy. Glad we cleared THAT mystery up!
