Default Urgent Care

This has been a tough 2018 for me so far. I have had an upper respiratory infection for going on 15 days. Am in the process of the 3 antibiotic shot cycle at the 441 urgent care in Colony. I would have went to my primary care Dr. but wouldn't you know I'd get sicker on a Friday night. Yesterday I waited over 2 hours for my shot and there were 5 rooms full of people and 5 ahead of me in the waiting room. Went this morning at 10:00 and there were 16 patients ahead of me and 5 full rooms waiting. I called my family Dr. and they will have the nurse at his office complete the shot today. Thank goodness. If you have to go to the urgent care be sure to take a mask with you. The room is warm and tons of people coughing and ill. It's an easy place to catch an even worse infection. Of course the best scenario is to go to your family doctor if you happen to get sick during the week.
