I paid out of pocket to go see a doctor yesterday since I had went to bed wheezing the night before and had woke up sounding even worse. After a lovely nose swab and breathing treatment, the nurse practitioner sent me on my way with prescriptions for albuterol, prednisone and codiene/ phenegran cough syrup. I really need to get a job with insurance soon! The doctors visit was $183 and my prescriptions cost me about $47. Boo!
