On my first trip to London I arrived with a sore throat and what felt like the flu. I had an audition with the Dallas Opera the next week and I panicked. The hotel gave me the name of a doctor a few blocks away and made an appointment for me. It was a small, dark, very dismal office, no one there but the doctor, who quickly looked at my throat, wrote a prescription, charged me 60.00 American dollars, and told me there was a pharmacy downstairs. I was hoping for antibiotics, maybe even some miracle drug not yet approved in the US. The prescription turned out to be for Chloraseptic Spray, one of the more useless things I've ever used. Since then I have realized that I inevitably got sick for the first 24 hours on my trips to Europe. Maybe it was some weird form of jetlag, but it's now much better since they no longer allow smoking on the flights.
