BCT Day 3

We had our first PT test this morning. I did okay on my running but realized something was off with my running. We had classroom with my platoon so it was nice to have a somewhat relaxed day. We had a 3 hour meeting in the afternoon.

Living with so many people results in a lot of germ exposure. Apparently I caught something in a few days. A female in the same barracks caught the same symptoms and jumped to the conclusion that it was strep throat. Since we can't miss any training, which is when sick call is, she dragged me to the hospital. Come to find out, I have a fever and have to be monitored with a 6 hour waiting room wait while she was given medicine and sent home. I was looking forward to a good night's sleep but instead, I am spending the night at the ER.

Update: After waiting 7 hours to see the doctor, I found out that I have a bad summer cold. I was given antibiotics and sent to medical quarters for 24 hours so that I can sleep.
