for those who are sick

If your throat is hurting and you feel achey, GET TO THE DR.

As you know last week my whole family was sick, hubby and I had strep and tonsilitis, the boy had strep and my daughter had a bad cold

 I missed 2 doses of my antibiotics and steriods last night and I felt it coming back. SO THOSE who are sick, I know how you feel but don't put off the dr, my strep throat came on VERY quickly.

Hope you feel better soon! The strep throat is a biotch! Luckily I'm only dealing with snot producing allergies!!! Yuck!!!

like I told willow last week, strep throat can kill ya, and I didn't know how serious it could be until I was sick one Ded 25, just felt sort of yucky, scratchy throat, headachy, but not too bad, and ended up in the hospital the next day, by ambulance no less, with sepsis due to strep throat...all in 24 hours. I now take a sore throat very seriously.

I am one that does not run a fever. My normal body temp is usually 96.5/97. So if I hit 98.6,,I'm sick

Dang! NCMOM. That's just scary. And carp! I had a sore throat come on suddenly yesterday...otherwise I feel fine. When I first started teaching I think I had every strain of strep throat available. yuck!

it was very scary, law. Now everytime I get a sore throat hubby makes me go to the doctor,,,lol. Most of the time it's nothing.

Yeah, you need to make sure to take ALL meds.

this is VERY true, Bubbles

Hmmm, my throat is feeling a little raw. And I get strep throat every year. I think I'd better take your advice. Glad you're feeling a little better. -Angela

uh oh...Now you got me worried fer sure. NM was sick last week and I woke up with a sore throat this morning...

Can ya'll have a fundraiser so I can go see a dr?? j/k

Willow, I sure hope you get well soon. And STOP sending that sickness my way! geesh...

I had a sore throat about a week ago and thought I was gonna pass out it hurt so badly to swallow. It ended up just being a cold, but back in 06 I got scarlet fever from mistreated strep. I had been to the doctors and gotten antibiotics, but there was a patch in my tonsils that the medicine just wasnt killing the strep bug. I ended up needing surgery. Strep is nothing to play around with.

Absolutely right! This "bug" going around is terrible and needs medical attention. Glad you're feeling better.
