  • Canadian here. My son just had an ear infection that was lasting 3 days. On the 3rd morning we called our doctors office to have it checked. They were able to squeeze us in at noon. Took him, and they couldn’t tell if it was viral or bacterial, so suggested we wait and see if it clears. Didn’t clear after another 2 days, but it was the weekend now. Called 811 and they contacted a medical center to make us an appointment in the morning. Next morning (Sunday now) office called us, made an appointment and saw him again. This time we got a prescription for some antibiotics.

    I’ve taken a course about anti-microbial resistance and I understand that doctors are instructed not to go with antibiotics first thing so it didn’t really bother me to go back a second time. It was nice they it was easy to be seen again even if it wasn’t with the family doctor.






  • On top of that, some rooms don’t have proper cold air return to the furnace, meaning those rooms don’t get proper air circulation and can be the reason for a room being warm. I’m experiencing this right now. One bedroom has a cold air return on the other side of the wall, but nothing in the room itself, and it’s the hottest room in the house. I gotta cut an entry to that cold air return duct.
