I called and confirmed that they only did the rapid - and will have to do another one (culture) in 4-6 days if this doesn't clear up. :/ GRRR. But I think this has gone into a sinus infection.

meanwhile, i'm driving my mom to all her appointments - sick as I am , and I can't stand up and tell her no. :/ she'll cancel her knee surgery and then blame me for the rest of her life....
