Get and read the test results.
I was tested "positive" earlier this year. I have seasonal bronchial asthma. Every spring leaf mold and I go a round and the leaf mold wins. It happens every year about the same time and it acts in the same way but doctor scheduler insisted that I get tested before I got an appointment or any treatment.
She then called me back and said "Covid, no treatment for you!"
I am on-line so I read the test results. Something that she apparently neglected to do. It said "NO VIRUS FOUND" presumptive positive based on SYMPTOMS.
So because I was coughing my lungs out, (same as the last thirty years) I must have WuFlu.
I called the office up and tore into them. I told them if they check my records they would see I had had WuFlu every spring for the past 15 years. Did they really want to go there or were they going to call in my normal prescription because I did not have time to be sick.
Everybody needs to do this. Read your test results. Apparently reading comprehension is going by the wayside in medical field as well as everywhere else.
Holy moly!! I’m glad you checked that and found them to be wrong. Can you imagine all the people that just took the questionabale test as gospel? The tests for my GD were done by her dad, at home, and all were “positive”. They didn’t question it for a while.
That is crazy-a lot of people around here must have decided the tests are not very informative because as soon as it was advertised that you could get them mailed to you for free, people ordered them and started selling them at several stalls at the local flea market that all the tourists visit-at a greatly inflated price-they may not be any good for testing for the Wuhan, but at least you can sell them and make a little money...
