today's little chuckle

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone,

I saw my internist yesterday because of antibiotic-related

problems—Candida here, there, and everywhere. He asked if I was taking the amoxicillin

for my lungs and how long it was prescribed for. His reaction to my answers was “SIX

WEEKS!!!!!” I told him

that it was because of a weird bacteria (I’m still fighting the Haemophilus

Para influenza that was cultured before Christmas). He looked in my chart and said “that

is a weird bacteria” and didn’t say anything else about the

six-week course of amoxicillin. He

wrote out a prescription, was worried that I would have problems while he was

out of the office next week, and told me who to call.

Bronch really is a pain in the neck (or more specifically

the chest) but at least there is an occasional laugh with it. Too bad that no one else understands the

joke.
