Sialadenitis

August 18, 2008

  

I am back from Urgent Care.  My regular physician could not get me in, shock shock.  Always happens that way.  So I headed to Urgent Care.  That is always an experience no?  I about kicked that doctor let me tell you when she was pressing on the gland in my throat and the gland under my tongue OMG.   Your saliva gland is swollen err yeah.  You have an infection called Sialadenitis which is a bacterial infection in my saliva gland) (errr yeah) so she wrote me a prescription for Augmentin and sent me on my way.  I headed to the pharmacy, on my wait out my cell phone rings, its the Doctor from Urgent Care, she decided to change my prescription so I had  to go back to the pharmacy area and wait again as they change it.  It was already filled and paid for I was in my car when she called!!!  She changed it to Cleocin HCL, she said that this one would be better for the condition than the Augmentin.  The pharmacist was like well this is unusual to fill and have the doctor call deciding to give you something else.  OH well just leave it me LOL  So now they were all messed up because I already paid for one and now have to fix their system to return one and take out the other.  What can ya do.

So I just too my prescription with two motrin and have to go get groceries then going to lay down a while…  I was up all night with this gland in severe pain
