Good results! I just worry they could make something worse.
I'd ask around for recommendations but this guy was not a specialist. He knew his stuff though.
A year or so later I came to him with a fever, body aches, runny nose ... I knew it wasn't just a cold or flu. He gave me something that was essentially aspirin + pain killer, it didn't touch the symptoms. A week later I was in emergency diagnosed with meningitis ... so there's that. BTW, you have to get a spinal tap to verify meningitis, your spinal fluid turns whitish from the dead white blood cells fighting the infection. So this doctor was great for skeletal issues, not necessarily as great for severe illness.
ooh that sounds rough
My head was pounding, light hurt my eyes. Just a candle at the far end of a dark room was too painful to look at. I had my head wrapped in a pillow while waiting in the ER. I lost about 20lbs in the 2 weeks before hospitalization from night sweats. I was in the hospital for 2 straight weeks on IV penicillin. Felt great after the 3rd day. Lots of stories as my party animal friends came in to visit, they brought a couple cases of beer (the doctor had allowed me 1 beer per day so I only had a couple because it could hinder the penicillin). The next day the morning nurse saw the empties under my bed (and no doubt smelled the beer), wrote me up for being an alcoholic. Lol!
