r6allstar Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 I have been sick for the past 2.5 weeks with a bad cough and congestion. It started to feel like it was letting up the past couple days but today my cough seems to have worsened a little bit. Also, I was sitting here at work minding my own business when I felt a lil' fart coming on lol. I go to fart andam forced to make a mad dash for the restroom before shitting myself lol. Maybe it was just that new buffalo chicken sub from Subway I dunno. Anyway, I have insurance but it is shitty(pun intended) insurance so I dont really want to go to the doc. Think I should worry? Im 25 and I doubt I have much to worry about since I am young and normally healthy. What do ya think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinjaNick Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 1 week of any sickness should go to the doctor. I don't know why not. Sometimes people do n't make it to 2.5 weeks like you did. You never know what you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r6allstar Posted October 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 AIDS.Go on a coke and hooker binge and get back to us in a week.I just got out of coke and hooker rehab so I am trying not to relapse. 1 week of any sickness should go to the doctor. I don't know why not. Sometimes people do n't make it to 2.5 weeks like you did. You never know what you have.Yea that may be true I guess. I just didnt want to spend the money on it I guess. Plus I still dont have a doctor in this area yet so I didnt know where would be best to go. Might try one of those CVS clinics or something haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InyaAzz Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Maybe try a free clinic in your area? Might have to wait 2 weeks in the waiting room.The long drawn out cough while coughing up crap is going around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaNick Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Urgent Care?? They're all over here in Dayton.Also, fuck money. Your life is more important than you getting a bill. Don't you think you're worth more than $250+? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r6allstar Posted October 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Yea I could hit up an urgent care place.. I guess from what I have been reading it is mostly the young and old that are affected by it so I wasnt too worried.. but I guess it would be smart to know whether I have it so that I can avoid both of those groups.

InyaAzz Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 If you are going to go see a doctor, DO NOT go to Urgent Care. Call your family doctor. Urgent Care is like going to the emergency room when it comes to insurance. Trust me on this one. Unless your insurance specifically says urgent care is covered like a doctor's visit...you'll be shitting bricks when you get the bill. Been there ..done that. And it sounds like your insurance is shitty anyways...so I'm guessing they don't want you going to urgent care if you can go see the doctor in his office (cheaper for them).Good luck.

InyaAzz Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 The above advice is assuming you can get into a Doc's office in the immediate future. I am in no way implying that you should suffocate on your own fluids and die while waiting for the next Dr's appointment. By all means, if you can't get in to see your Doc...take your ass to Urgent Care STAT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r6allstar Posted October 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Need me to take care of your lady for you? lol good one.. we arent together anymore anyway... you will have to ask her new boyfriend if she needs to be taken care of or not hahahaIf you are going to go see a doctor, DO NOT go to Urgent Care. Call your family doctor. Urgent Care is like going to the emergency room when it comes to insurance. Trust me on this one. Unless your insurance specifically says urgent care is covered like a doctor's visit...you'll be shitting bricks when you get the bill. Been there ..done that. And it sounds like your insurance is shitty anyways...so I'm guessing they don't want you going to urgent care if you can go see the doctor in his office (cheaper for them).Good luck.Dont have a family doctor. Wouldnt think it would be hard to find one though. Thanks for the advice on Urgent Care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wht_scorpion Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 dude if you get a sore throat and the shits go get check out or go visit cdc.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmagicglock Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 I've had the buffalo chicken sub at subway... and I'm thinking those hershey squirts are independent of your cough. If you've had a cough for 2.5 weeks I'm guessing you have chronic bronchitis and probably have black mold in your house somewhere and need to clean things up you dirty bastard. jk go see a doctor (you can call any office close-by and ask them if they're accepting new patients) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 If you have a temp and cough with sore throat it probably is H1N1. My kids school has it running rampant right now. Both kids and wife have had it. The cough runs 2-3 weeks. Sons cleared in two and the daughter still has it at three. The Pediatrician said keep an eye on them and lots of Tylenol and Motrin.The CDC said the seasonal flu has not arrived yet so all the flu going around now is H1N1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jporter12 Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 Yeah, they SAY the seasonal isn't going around you, but our 7 year old has something, and it's not H1N1, he was tested today, since he has quite a few of the symptoms.

socaln8tv Posted October 21, 2009 Report Share Posted October 21, 2009 i heard them saying the h1n1 was intended to go into the regular flu shots but didnt make it in time and thats why its being distributed separately. im jacking my kids up on lots of citrus, bananas, apples... all of us everyday. hope it will pay off in lieu of the shot. i just can't do it. actually, ive never had flu shots ever, nor my kids. im not anti shot in general -- ive just never done it before.
