So last Thursday i reached the point where i have been sick for 4 weeks already.
My friends and family told me to see a doctor since 4 weeks is way too long.
I decided to wait 1 more day to see what happened.
After another night of barely any sleep i was at a breaking point and decided to call the doctor.
I spoke to the assistant, told her that i had had a cold for over 4 weeks, barely slept, felt like crap and i did not know what to do anymore (i was desperate).
Her reply was:" Did you try nasal spray yet?"
Ok....i know she was trying to help, but i was sorta kinda hoping for her to say:' Ok, i will make an appointment for you and we will see what is going on."
Anyway my reply was:" No i have not, there are so many types of nasal spray, i would not even know which one to buy" i did not tell her that i am not a fan of nasal spray to begin with.
Then she replied:" Ok, well you need to buy a nasal spray with this in it.... (out came a very difficult name that she had to spell for me lol) and you need to use that for a week. If you're not better by then you can call us back and we will make an appointment."
Seriously??? I have been sick for over 4 weeks and call you in desperation and you tell me to try out something for another week and see what happens????
Anyway...being the good little girl i am lol i went out and bought the damn nasal spray and am using it since Friday.
Sure it helps and opens up the stuffed nose....but every 5 to 6 hours i need to use it again because my nose gets stuffed again....
You can only use the spray for a week and i fear that on Friday my nose will be just as stuffed again.....i will feel like crap again and it all starts from the beginning yet again!
I will most likely call the doctor on Friday who will then most likely schedule me in for the next week....meaning another couple of days of feeling like crap.
GRRRRRRRR
