This is kind of a funny story, because as of the beginning of this year I was kicked off my parents insurance. You can thank my high school illness and my decision to attend massage school in place of my senior year for that. So naturally when I woke up on Friday morning and realized what was happening, I was more than a little freaked out. I've been through pathology, and vaguely remembered that UTI's aren't that big of a deal as long as you get them treated (which my sister confirmed). If you don't, they can spread to a kidney infection and that's way more serious.
But I REALLY don't have the money to pay for a doctor's visit. After much discussion with my parents, my dad called his best friend from high school who's a doctor in St. George. He called in a prescription for antibiotics and I got to completely skip the doctor! Yesss.
The best part? Do you have any idea how much antibiotics cost without prescription insurance? Neither did I, but I figured it would be expensive. Turns out, they were FOUR DOLLARS.
WIN.
Have I weirded you out? Good, then my work here is done.
With love and insanity,
Linds
