dedoc called me up, heard me cough, and suggested that I not wait until Monday to get medical attention. I called the person who's on call for my doctor, and she offered to call in a prescription for an albuterol inhaler, saying that if it didn't work I could go to the ER afterward. I told her I wasn't comfortable trying a totally new drug and type of treatment without being seen, so she amended her advice and told me to go to the ER now. So if my car starts, that's where I'm going. I'll keep you updated.
