I arrived at 10am with my sick daughter. She has a fever, sore throat, body ache and headache. Sick now for 2 days.I have to wait hours to see a fucking doctor because the clinic is overwhelmed with healthy people needing covid tests for travel or work. WTF?!? People who are actually sick can’t get help because healthy people are being forced to test just to live their fucking lives.
Edited to add: this gets even more ridiculous. The clinic doesn’t bill insurance for rapid tests. You have to pay out of pocket for a rapid covid test $150, and $175 for a rapid flu/covid test. And they don’t stock the plain old rapid flu test so you have no choice but to either get the bogus discontinued PCR test or pay to get the rapid test. They don’t tell you this until you wait 2+ Hours to see a dr. What a fucking racket!
This will be a random comment, but have her go to a chiropractor and get the chiropractor to open up her eustation (sp?) tubes. Or, if you know how, pull on her ears and pop them open. I had mono for months in college and it wouldn’t go away with antibiotics. Turns out, it was “stuck” in my head and kept reinfecting me. Once the infection finally drained from my head, I was super super sick for a week, but then it was finally gone. Be ready with a strong round of antibiotics, though!
