wolfsbrideI've had a bad cough for about a month now. I'm not one to rush off to the doctor so it wasn't until my cough started interfering with my sleep, that I made a doctor's appointment. Today was the day.
After asking me how long I'd had the cough, what kind of cough it was, how often I coughed, my doctor had these wise words to say. "Well, we'll try this and see what happens."
Four thousand plus years of medical technology and it all boils down to guess work. How comforting. I suppose I should be thankful he didn't slap a leech on my forehead and saw off a limb.
