I finally went to the doctor and of course I have strep throat.

I left work on Tuesday feeling perfect, went to class that night and started to feel a little bad. I got home from class and felt like absolute shiit. I figure it wasn't anything major and I'd take the day off and sleep. I actually felt worse this morning so after putting it off I finally got anti-botics.

I'll totally admit I'm a big baby when I'm not feeling well, but in my defense I don't get sick often. I've never even had strep throat before!

Anyways, I hope you ladies are having a fabulous first day of March. I'm going back to bed.

***sends good health dust to Stellar***

sorry you got so sick, I hope it goes away quickly with your new meds!   Drink fluids as much as you can to help with the throat burning, and maybe some cough drops, too.

I was one of those unfortunate people who got strep every other week when I was younger, and it SUCKS. Thankfully the antibiotics shouldn't take too long to make a difference! I hope they work quick for you and you stop feelin' sicky!

Strep sucks! I only recall having it once, but it had unfortunate timing. Mid-terms.

Hope it goes away quickly! Rest up and we'll see ya when you're all better!

I'm going to disagree with this. I was always told to avoid anything that coats your throat too much (like ice cream) because your natural reaction (without even realizing you're doing it) is to 'clear your throat' and it makes it hurt even worse.

Do you have a warm mist humidifier? Humidifiers seem to make a big difference when my throat hurts.

Hope you feel better by the weekend.  I used to get strep every year and a very grateful I havent had it in about 4years.  {{{knocks on wood}}}
