Back Under House Arrest days 214/215

Catching up on my blog for Friday and Saturday. Friday I gave in and called the doctor (at 8.30 am) I finally got a call back at 1.30pm. He prescribed antibiotics and have me a list of things to watch out for which could indicate things going awry.
He told me that he would pop the prescription next door to the pharmacy and to after 3pm as it was important to start the course asap. 
We walked into the village and to the hub where the doctors and pharmacy are. 
There was of course a queue, and when my time came I gave  my name and explained why I was there. ( I'd waited 20 mins at this point) Surprisingly there was no such prescription for me, the pharmacist rang the doctor and lo and behold he was able to pass on the script over the phone. I love it when a plan comes together. After a further 15 minutes wait I then had to pay £18.90 for a grand total of 10 tablets 5 of Metronidazole and 5 of Trimethoprim! Great! 
I started taking them straight away and although I still have some pain/ discomfort, I can feel it less. It's a weird pain, very much like stitch when you've run too hard, but this is constant and sharp when you breathe.
Today was back to work after our week off. It was quite busy. You know how it goes ten minutes back and it feels like you haven't had a holiday.
