Today at 30 years old I discovered I need my tonsils out. Meaning all these years I had TONSILLITIS not SINUSITIS. I also discovered that when you feel bad, you should not be too cool to go see a REAL doctor. (The MCs* unfortunately do not count). I just believed the MCdoctor when they said I had a sinus infection. Actually the way it worked was I would diagnose myself, and they would agree with me. Sometimes they even asked me what kind of antibiotic I would like.
On the bright side, I always thought that I was a lightweight and just couldn't tolerate a little sore throat. I felt slightly tougher today when I went to said REAL doctor and he gave me Vicadin. No thanks, I will tough it out...or save it for the post-op.
*Minute clinics or any variation thereof. Includes "urgent care." Ironically there is an ER right next to the urgent care, with no wait whatsoever.
