Last night the Cards won. I feel like going to Busch to buy a T-shirt, and then I remember that's around 5,000 miles away on a £1000+ plane flight, and if made that trip after I left work when I got back I'd be expected back in the office again.

Bloody time zones.

My baby had a 104.5 fever last night so we went to the ER, on doctor's aide's instruction. She received what is essentially going to be a $2000 dose of Tylenol. Viva life.

Stupid Obummer Care. Vote for Donald Trump and you'll get OxyContin for free.

Dang that stinks. Did you all give her any ibuprofren/tylenol before that?

Little AW got a lot of fevers when he was younger and a combo of those two otc drugs worked wonders. Maybe not the best for his long term health, idk, but they sure did make him happier.

Lukewarm sponge baths and Tylenol. Hell, even febrile seizures are generally no big deal. Scary for sure though.

Been there - we got a bill for over $10,000 for one of my girls pneumonia visit to the ER and Children's hospital. Even with my insurance I had to foot close to $6,000 of that. This was before Obamacare - so maybe I would have gotten everything free and a free i-phone thrown in now that we have Obamcare.

Good grief. Did that bill get stuck on you because of deductible or some other trick?

Has anybody tried those urgent care places as an alternative to the ER?
