I was recently hired at Outback Steakhouse. After all my training shifts, the night of I started feeling really sick. It was just a sore throat but waking up Monday morning I really didn’t feel good. My throat really hurt and I checked and my tonsils were really swollen. I went into a care center and the strep test came back negative. However she looked at my throat, and you could hear it in my voice that I was sick. She gave me medication for tonsillitis. Then told me a sore throat and stuffy nose are symptoms of covid and asked if I wanted to get tested. So I took the test and had to call into work today because the doctor suggested that I don’t go into work or school until my test comes back. After taking the medication though I feel a lot better and the swelling has gone down.
I did learn a lot yesterday. I had to find a doctor, and then where the doctors office was. After I had to wait outside the pharmacy until my prescription was ready. Overall while I am out here I am learning how to adult. I also bought some yogurt since I was prescribed antibiotics. All this downtime though is giving me time to upload and edit my photos though so there’s a good side! I am doing good though regardless if I am sick or not, so no need to worry. I love and miss you all!
You are doing a great job adulting! I’m glad you were able to get to the doctor and get the prescription! I’m posting this now that you’re well and was so glad you were in touch with me during your illness! I’m especially happy you’re well with negative Covid-19 results!
