So I went to the doctor again yesterday because you can see the gland on my neck clear across the room. So I went and saw a REAL doctor not my crazy physicians assistant. So I go in there and she knew exactly what was wrong: Viral strep. Its like regular strep but its about 10x worse because there is no antibiotic that will fight it. Also it lasts anywhere from 2-6 WEEKS! She said to go to the pharmacy and buy mucinex d and take it twice a day til it goes away. Each person is different she's seen it go away in as little as two weeks and last as long as 6 or 7 weeks. I was in shock. And to top it all of mucinex d does nothing! I still feel like crap and i'm stuck at work. Yay.
But I do have the best boss in the world. My mom called him yesterday to tell him I wouldn't be in because I was pretty sick and had to go back to the doctor. Rather than being like "She better bring in a doctors note" or anything like that. He said "Tell her were thinking about her and hope she gets feeling better" What a sweetheart. Thats another reason i love my job.
