These kids today

When I was a kid, I went to a doctor who looked like a grandfather and nodded and maybe said "hmmmm," during your exam.

Now anytime I go to the doctor, the doctor is a kid who says "ewww."

This morning I got out of the shower and noticed that I had a rash. That made me a little nervous, what with the sore throat and fever, so I went in for a strep test.

The rapid test came back negative, but when the doctor looked down my throat, he said "ewww!" right away. Apparently the ewwwy look plus the rash trumped the empirical strep test, and he sent me home with Augmentin.

Normally I don't like to contribute to misuse of antibiotics, but presumably the doctor knows what he's looking at (even if he is 12 years old) and if it looks bacterial instead of viral, let's go for it. I need to be at work on Monday (I have a "deliverable," and everybody else who knows how to deliver it is vacationing west of the Mississippi right now), plus I feel like crap and would like that to change.

So c'mon, Augmentin, let's kick some streptococcal tail.
