So tired of this crap [I Just Need To Vent]

I need to vent a little, is been a very long week. I had a regular follow up appt and was going to bring it up then.I started getting sick about a week ago and it had I was only getting worse. So when I went to the clinic I called their number and told them my symptoms and I was sent to the hospital instead. I had, and still have, a fever over 102 and body aches, really bad cough, and general congestion. With stomach problems. So the dr. said he suspected COVID said to quarantine until I get a call from them, had me tested, and sent me home. I have been sick ever since. I have a pre existing condition that makes my immune system less than stellar. Today i have felt the worst i had since i started feeling sick. Called the Dr and basically said that my results weren't back and that it was originally just hitting me harder and that i should make a tele appt with my regular dr. So i did that. Just so tired of feeling this sick.

I understand...I too had to wait 2w before anyone could see me to fix my stomach problems. These are the times we live in now. At my primary physicians office they answer the phone and state that they do not see sick patients. I get what she meant, but at the same time...doesn’t that mean the doctors office should be closed? Like what’s the point of all these doctors NOT see sick patients?
