Still Infected

I went to a clinic on the 18th to get treated for my bladder infection. The urine test came back negative, so the doctor sent me on my way with a prescription for some blue pills to ease the discomfort and I ended up being $90 poorer. He said I was probably irritated from something I ate or something. Hm, ok.

Well, it's over a week later, the blue pills are gone and I still feel like I have a bladder infection. This so totally sucks. As Marcus noted, "The mechanic can't figure out what's wrong with your car and the doctor can't figure out what's wrong with you. What's up with that?" I have no health insurance and no money. Now what? I think the thing that's making me most upset is if it had been diagnosed correctly, I'd be taking the last of the antibiotics today and I'd be moving on. Instead I'm in more discomfort than ever, it's Easter Sunday and everything is closed and if I can find a way to get to a another doctor tomorrow, it will still be at least another 10 days until there is some sort of resolution to this. Damn it!

Any wonder why I hate going to doctors of any kind?
