Did the Doctor Prescribe Me the Wrong Pills? Posted: 08-08-04 09:20am
Hi,
my throat started hurting about a week
ago, only on the left side, I also feel
like my nodes might me slightly swollen on
the same side. Everytime I swallow, even
my saliva, it feels like I have a piece of
hard toast stuck in my throat, when I blow
my nose it hurts up to my ear. Since I
have to sing next week I did not take any
chances and I went down to the clinic.
The doc told me I had an infection in my
throat, prescribed me amoxicillin for 10
days. Now I started my 4th day taking it
and I feel absolutely no difference.
Should I go back to the doctor ? Since my
concert is approaching soon, I wanna make
sure I heal asap. Anyone's opinion is
welcome.
Thanks
gaetano

Call Your Dr. Posted: 08-11-04 20:33pm
If you aren't experiencing any relief
after being on the medication for 4 days,
I think you should definitely call your
doctor and let him or her know what is
going on. They might agree your
medication needs to be changed and call
you in a new prescription.
