Decided to go to Walk-IN

After having 2 colds and coughing for sixteen days with the 2nd cold/cough attack (like flu I think) decided to call and get an appointment to see my Dr. Wednesday.
I was told that I can see my Dr. on April 22nd. That is a 7-day week even though I told her I was coughing for sixteen days.
No other Drs had any openings either.
I have taken this appointment but then later Wednesday Sandy and I went to St. Albert to a walk-in clinic; an hour wait on this particular day; half the people sounded like they had my ailment. Others were hurt, etc.
I got special cough syrup and a medication to last for 10 days in the shape of yellow oval pills.
It is now Friday a.m. and I am not over the cough yet but it is not as bad as Tuesday night.
Hope everyone else is well.
Weather here today at 11:00 a.m. 10.6 with wind. So it feels chilly. Jake was outside; said it is cold, he was out when it was about 8 degrees.
Keep well everyone.
