I'm talking about the 8x$5 latency HITs.

If you're talking about the $10 survey, that went out Saturday and was supposed to be completed during the game.

Oh okay! I thought that you were talking about the William Wishon HIT that's up right now

That's weird, I would think he would suggest maybe something for bringing her fever down, and not an antiviral.

I would suspect that they gave tamiflu because the flu can take anywhere from 24 hours - 4 days to show up on a test, so they just wanted to be safe because(if?)she was showing symptoms of the flu and it is going around right now.

According to my husband he was unconcerned with her fever and cough. It was like his mind was made up before anything happened or something. She probably does have some type of cold virus (could have sworn it was from an ear infection) He basically said take this or you'll be back in here in two days. I wish her normal doctor was available.

Okay, now this actually makes some sense and makes me feel a bit better. He did say the flu is everywhere which was another reason for the prescription.

I'd be wondering if flu tests can sometimes give false negatives or positives. Some tests vary in their reliability.

Yep - plus this way whatever infection is/was causing issues should be knocked out in no time with an antibiotic (the ear drops should be) and an antiviral.

This is another good point. Maybe he was certain for a reason. I just hope it helps her. She isn't herself and it's heartbreaking.

Sometimes the rapid test will come back negative even if you have the flu (It happened to me a couple of years ago, the rapid test was negative and they didn't prescribe anything and I was horribly sick for a week, but after it was over the doctor called to tell me that they had sent it to the lab for the longer test and it came back positive after I was already better). If you feel like something else is wrong, I'd take her to another doctor and have them check her out though. I'd go with your gut.

Yes, the ear drops are an antibiotic. Thank you for bringing me some relief from the constant worry.

This is probably the case. Thank you for your help!

I'd also suggest a second opinion if you feel anything isn't right, just for reassurance. I'd be careful with Tamiflu. I've heard some pretty scary side effects that I'd let an adult face, but not a child (hallucinations and such.) The doctor should have gone over any potential side effects thoroughly and explained the reason for the prescription. If not, call and ask! Hope your little gets to feeling better!

I'll certainly keep an even closer eye on her than before. I hope she isn't affected by any negative side effects. I'll give her usual doctor a call tomorrow and see what she thinks about it. Needless to say, she won't be seeing that guy again. Thank you

I need some big bonuses to come in so I can just play Xbox all day instead.
