Strep Throat...

Recommended Posts

...Really sucks. Although it's a very effective weight loss plan.


It is tough being single and in a college town, having strep throat just makes things miserable.

St Patty's day for me has been vanilla ice cream and Titanic on TBS.

This sucks. The pain shoots into my ears also.

Ow.

I did not know you visited ATL. I missed Dublin due to Step Throat... Went to the doctor on Wed they had to do a culture since the rapid came up negative so I got to suffer a few extra days!

I am with you in the feeling miserable department! :S

Ambien.


I should have asked for that from the doctor. All I got was antibiotics and Motrin. This is my second day on the meds and my throat is still raw and ears still bothering me. :S

Ow ow motherfucking ow! I've been there. It's been 25 years since I had strep throat but it made me so fucking miserable. Just swallowing anything, even spit, had my throat on fire. I lost 15 pounds in one week before my parents took me to a doctor. We were right in the middle of a long beach vacation. Worst vacation I ever had. [:/]

Oy. I usually come down with the symptoms 2 to 3 times a year. It seems I tend to carry it without coming down with symptoms most of the time, but when I do come down with the symptoms it sucks pretty hard. I probably go in for at least half a dozen strep tests a year. They are often negative, but I always worry when others around me start getting it because of the tendency to carry it. I got a whole van load of friends sick once when we took a road trip and I didn't know I had it.

It sucks!

Nyquil (and lots of it) is usually the trick for me. I just knock myself the hell out for the whole time I have it.

I just saw this today; Never tried it:

I can sympathize. I had it once and never want it again. Like having a throat full of double-edge razor blades.
