[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a pediatrician, the amount of misinformation on this thread is mind boggling. It's like a perfect storm of terrible information from multiple angles. It makes me want to retire. I mean, image going to school for what seems like eternity, and practicing medicine within relatively limited scope (pediatric primary care) for two full decades. And having these moms come at you with their random, highly misinterpreted internet research and comments like "I feel like I've been gaslighted, antibiotics DO work for viral infections!" and accusing you of treating amoxicillin like oxycontin. Except the poster who is dying on the hill of "green mucus does not necessarily mean you have a bacterial infection". You can stay. [/quote] I was just about to say this. I’m an internist and wow a lot of misinformation here. I wish people would trust the experts more these days. [/quote]
