Seems like it is winter time here as we are both under the weather, we usually get sick once each every winter. I know to anyone further north this will sound crazy; but when it gets cold here in the winter we always get 1 cold each. Yes, to us it is cold; but then we are used to the summer heat so for us it does indeed feel cold.
I was having some symptoms and so of course went to google and looked up some stuff, it kind of confirmed what I had thought so off I went to see the Dr.. I usually go to the Drs. at Farmacia Similiares, they are good and very reasonably priced, 25 pesos or less than $2.00 a visit. I had him check my blood pressure and then I explained my problem, he had a look and confirmed my and googles diagnosis. He wrote out a prescription and off I went downstairs to the farmacia (pharmacy) to pick it up and pay for it.
When I got home, of course I googled the best medication for the treatment of my problem and up popped exactly what the Dr. had prescribed for me. Good deal. I have always had good experiences with these Drs.
I seldom take antibiotics because they tend to upset my tummy and sure enough today my tummy is upset. Oh well, not like I wasn't expecting it.
Roy is sick with a bad cold or I am thinking bad Bronchitis but until today (Sunday) has refused to go to the Dr.. MEN!!!! What is with men and going to the Dr.???? He has been coughing so much for the last 5 or 6 days and nights that neither one of us has gotten hardly any sleep. Well, this morning he finally decided that it was time to see a Dr.. He didn't feel like going out so we were going to have the Dr. come here to see him. Yes, they still do housecalls here. Right, it is Sunday and the only Drs. I know work at the Farmacias, I went and enlisted the aid of my landlady and she knew some Drs. names; but of course when she tried them they were all out, being Sunday. She was going to try one last person that she knew was away in the next town for a few hours; but Roy decided that he would just wait until tomorrow rather than bothering this fellow or going to the Emergency room. He is sleeping now so maybe he will feel better when he wakes up.
You sure can tell it is winter.
