Hey Little Girl....Want A Benadryl?...........

So you all know about my horrendous ear ache. It turned out to be the sinus/ear infection combo meal #2.

The nurse told me she'd get the doc in as soon as possible...Cause my eyes looked so weak....But that my lipstick was hot.

Got some good meds. Took first decongestant. It was the size of Rhode Island...But I took it. And it got me to wondering..............

So - Two nights in a row, I begged 3 different pharmacists for SOMETHING....ANYTHING...to ease the pain. Decongestant? Antihistamine? Dynamite? Sulfuric acid? Don't care...Just help me. Two different decongestant/antimistamines, a nose spray, one ear drop, 17 bazillion ibuprophen later...NOTHING. Still in excrutiating pain.

Get to doc today, and after falling asleep on the exam table, get my prescriptions. Prescription nose spray, prescription decongestant, and antibiotic. Take/spray first round....BETTER. Within 30 minutes BETTER. Not great...not cured...but sooooooooooooooooo much better.

So what I'm wondering is....Are there REALLY that many people pacing, scratching their heads, biting their fingernails, and chewing on pencils saying "Decongestants! Decongestants! Very strong decongestants!! GOTTA HAVE 'EM NOW!!" Similar to how in college we used to say "Need a bag....Need a bag...Need a bag!!" Or how the hooker on Stewart Avenue says "Hey buddy...This can be yours for a rock."?????

It must be some giant scheme dreamt up by the drug companies....And Republicans. I coulda felt better three days ago!!!
