    I’ve been putting off allergies/sinus issue for a bit, just to hoping it would go away on its own. This morning I woke up with a sore left ear and jaw. I could hear the bubbling in my ear. Took some Ibuprofen and Acetaminophen to help. The pain returned by lunch. Decided to go get it looked at on insurance. Still cost $310 to get some Amoxacillian prescribed. I am fortunate to be able to afford it and yet it still hurt me financially.

        I guess I didn’t explain it well. The doctors visit was $310. The prescription was $6. I should have said it the visit cost $310 and all they did was look at my ear for 30seconds and prescribe me Amoxacillian
