Sick with the Flu

Going to the doctor is not always fun. Sometimes when I go to the doctor it is for a check-up. Most of the time, if I am at the doctor, it is because I am sick. I hate getting sick,  but it happens at least once a year. Last year I had the flu. I had a fever and the chills. I went to the doctor and she told me to stay home from work and rest. She also said I should drink a lot of fluids. The doctor gave me a prescription for some medicine. I went to the pharmacy and filled the prescription. When I got home I took the medication and followed the dosage instructions carefully. Thirty minutes later I was itchy all over and covered in red marks on my skin! My face was itchy, my ears were itchy, even my stomach was itchy! It was terrible. I called the doctor and she said, "Stop taking that medication! You are having an allergic reaction!" I discontinued the medicine and eventually  got over the flu, but it was not fun to be sick and itchy! Now I know that I cannot take that medication and I should write it down on all my medical history forms.
