Improvement

Today I woke up feeling a lot better. Only had to get up once during the night for more water, and my fever and sweating were down. Called the doc's office and made another appointment for three. Set three different alarms just in case. Took it easy all morning, oatmeal for breakfast, a bottle of gatorade, more tylenol. At three went in to see the doctor. We'll that was my scheduled time- actually saw him at 3:45. I told him my symptoms, he looked me over, told me I had an ulcer on one of my tonsils with lots of drainage. Said he was would diagnose it as Tonsillitis, and perscribed some amoxicillin. The health insurance plan is 10% of the total cost, so I paid $6 for the visit. On my way home I filled the perscription at Walgreens, $1.50 with the insurance card. I felt well enough to come into studio in the last hour of class. The instructor commended the work I'd done and told me not to stress out about our pinup monday. I was touched by how many people asked me how I was feeling. Anyway, 75% of the library staff is in varying degrees of illness, so I said I'd fill in tonight. Since my latin american classes were all cancelled this week, I dont have to be at school until 1:40 tomorrow. Lots of time to rest. But definately take it easy for awhile. My head still hurts, but I'm feeling a lot better generally. Just can't whatever it is get another hold.
