I have been so miserable today, that I didn’t watch news or check in on line all day. Wish I had. This latest sinus infection is bad. Thank God I found a new PA who wants me on antibiotics for a minimum of 2 wks, and he gave me a refill. I liked him, too. I was worried with having to start over since my doctor and his PA retired.

I’m glad you found someone you feel okay with-I’m sure that will go a long way to putting you at ease.
