I am sick! May be pneumonia. I've had pneumonia several times in my life. Last nite was a terrible time for me. I felt miserable!
This morning I will look around for a hospital in order to connect with a doctor for treatment.
8AM - Centro de Salud
A lady with her two children walked by MsTioga and I asked her the location for a hospital. She told me that the place where people go for health care here in Mazamitla is called the Centro de Salud. I took a taxi to Centro de Salud.
When I got to Centro de Salud, I explained what my problem was. In only a few minutes I was sitting in the doctor's office. He examined me with his stethoscope and told me that I do not have pneumonia. But what I have could develop into pneumonia without treatment. I received an injection of Ceftriaxona, the first of three daily injections. Also, I have medication to take by mouth for the next five days.
10AM - Hotel La Troje
I decided that I needed to stay in a hotel during my recovery. It will be quiet in the hotel, and I will not have to drive MsTioga around since the hotel is very close to Centro de Salud. My room in the Hotel El Troje is very nice! And I have internet here. MsTioga is parked just across the street.
5:30PM - Feeling a little better
I am feeling better now. Mostly I have been resting in bed. I've been watching TV which is all in Spanish, which means that I do not understand what is going on completely. I've booked this room for three days, one day for each drug injection. Hopefully by Friday, I will know if this treatment is working or not.
