I'm really conflicted about calling an ambulance rn

I don't have the emotional bandwidth or patience to wait hours in a waiting room before they finally check me but the extent of this infection is something else.

I'm taking everything from antibiotics, ear sprays, throat sprays and pain killers. I keep going to and from high fevers and intense sweating. It's been like this for 4 days. I've had symptoms way longer than that. Probably up to a month. The only thing that's stopped as much is the dizzy spells.

The coughing, pain and shortness of breath is still there, as is the fever and body aches. This infection I'm fighting right now is the most intense shit ever.

I'm gonna wait it out until my antibiotics course is completed before deciding. I feel like I need an inhaler rn at the very least😭

Could be covid, my first experience with it was like that. I know it’s gonna be a pain but you don’t want to take a chance. Just make sure they have your insurance information because otherwise they’ll ignore that and try to charge you thousands.

@Captainjackass I'm not in the US, I don't need insurance

@HijabaDabbaDoo lucky. Then take advantage of that and go. Yeah it will suck waiting but you can get help.
