It looks like it was a good thing I canceled the trip. Turns out that Marty has strep throat. He left the doctors office whit three prescriptions and two painful shots. Good times.
What the heck is up with medical prices? Seriously... have I been living under a rock all of this time? I think we have just been lucky. In the last few weeks we will have spent $140 on office visit co-pays and over $300 on prescriptions. That is if I am not prescribed anything tomorrow.
Yes, I go back to my family doctor tomorrow to go over the results of my blood work. I was a little freaked out by the fact that he wanted me to come in instead of just sending me a letter, but the fact that he made the follow up appointment before he even drew the blood made me feel a little better. It isn't like he called a week later and said "OMG! You need to get in here now! And bring someone to drive you home because you will be a blubbering mess by the time you leave here! And don't walk too fast because your cholesterol is so high you might die on the way in!"
Right??
