I don't think I've ever had the flu, well...

• Appointment with Dr. R for flu symptoms

Dr. R thinks I could have the flu (she's been seeing a lot of it in her patients, um, maybe I caught it when I was there on Monday!) or possibly something like strep throat. She prescribes Tamiflu and a Z-pack to throw everything at it and see what sticks. (My words there, not hers exactly.) Also, she tells me that I shouldn't take any more Xeloda until at least I see her again in two days. We don't want these symptoms to escalate into something more serious and we certainly don't want to have to be admitted to the hospital. Being at home to recover sounds much more appealing to me.
