Doctor

• I went to the doctor on Friday.


• On Thursday night it was getting difficult to swallow. I had a few white speckles in the back of my throat.


• I thought I had strep throat. 


• On Friday I taught class, so I didn't want to miss. I decided to go for lecture and call the doctor office right after that. 


• As soon as I called the doctor's office, they said they could get me in as long as I could make it to their office in 10 minutes. I left my class, and went to the doctor. 


• Of course it had to be snowing outside. Part of that 10 minutes was clearing off my car.


• The nurse did a throat culture before the doctor even came in.


• The culture was negative. My doctor gave me an antibiotic.


• I went back to work.


• Once I got home, I could barely talk and my ears felt plugged.


• The boy's and I cuddled.
