Meh. I really try not to whinge on my LJ. But I'm going to FAIL at this moment.

I've been running intermittent fevers since Sunday. Currently up to 39.4 (~103F for the Americans and Grand Parents). I called the clinic to ask them for advice at 38.8. Phoned them back when 10 minutes later I felt worse and was up to 39.4. So, fine. I feel like crap, poor me. What pisses me off, though, is me asking the receptionist for what the standard number at which I should head to emergency is rather than wait for a call back and getting the answer "We can't give out medical advice".

ARRRGH I WANT TO GO HOME.

Me asking for the best course of action to not wind up in a body bag where the answer is certainly in a first year nursing textbook is NOT medical advice. I know they'll give this info at home because that's how I found out the number in the first place. But the memory isn't doing so well right at the moment.

So I'm waiting for a call back from the doctor. *sigh*

2h45 until my birthday. Happy birthday to me. =(
