So I’ve been feeling very bad lately, sore neck, sore throat, sneezing, swollen lymph nodes, painful ears. Jees what a list.

Anyways: I go to the doctor’s here, which is free at campus. Little talk, little examination, appears I have strep throat, and a fluid drainage problems in my nose. So at night the fluids flow to the back of my throat which makes it feel sore. So the doctor prescribes something.

But that’s not interesting. Getting your medicine it pretty interesting for an European.

You go to Dillons, with your prescription, the doctor asks some questions. I needed to show ID, then they give you the medicine and then you need to sign.

Apparently law in the US is very strict to avoid misuse. And it’s not bad

I now have this very cool orange –like in the movies- medicine can/tupe/whatever you call it:

Most people will find this probably stupid, me posting this, but hey, it’s an all new experience for me.
