I went to the doctor for the 2nd time today. The my doctor said I have bronchitis, and is running a test to see why my kidneys hurt.

I had gone to a med-express dr. 9 days ago they had said I had a virus and just gave me steroids and cough meds which did not help. I am thinking I will stop going to any type of quick care doctor as you don’t know how it will work out.

I think the reason I am at work is because I keep going stir- crazy at home.

Sucks to be sick. Most times a chest cold is viral, and then we in medicine just call it bronchitis when the cough sounds a little wet and it's a week or 2 after the initial infection. As long as they are confident it's not a pneumonia, you'll slowly feel more like yourself.

Fast med places are only good for sinus and strep. Anything else go see a real doc. Hurt your ankle? You can still run away from med express exp just do an ER visit during regular hours. Ask me an d my lack of tendons how I know.

I hope it’s nothing, which also requires me to hope your prolonged suffering is for nothing 

Two years ago I had the norovirus and was sick every day for about 11 days. Then came the week of being sickly/exhausted as a byproduct of all the symptoms, and basically felt like a new and different smiting.

Hoping it is just from the virus. That is what I have been assuming .

Here, have a terrible picture of a Merkur Scorpio I photographed from my XJ6 today . I’ve seen this car before in the same area so I circled back to get a pic.
