quack 0 #2 November 29, 2006 Who's Strep Throat, and why do you need him along for the trip? Seriously, that sucks. Water and sleep, whenever you can. The salt water gargle can help, too, while you're waiting for the amoxicillin to do its job. But you have to understand, mental illness is like cholesterol. There is the good kind and the bad. Without the good kind- less flavor to life. - Serge A. Storms Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LittleOne 0 #3 November 29, 2006 Very, very sorry you have to go through this. I feel your pain. How about: d) Being 10,000 miles from home and having to go into emergency surgery (excused from all meetings) Look on the bright side: it could be worse!

ntrprnr 0 #7 November 29, 2006 QuoteThere's ice in men's urinals? I hope you feel better soon. Strep throat sucks, it feels like a knife is in your throat every time you swallow! Yes. And even swallowing it won't help the flaming hot sears of pain I feel. Oh - and taking 15 minutes to go and fly in the tunnel - thinking that'll help knock it out? Doesn't work. :-( - But I was able to confirm that my belly flying is actually getting better. :D_______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

NWFlyer 2 #12 November 29, 2006 Try hot tea with honey and lemon. The honey is very soothing.

Muenkel 0 #19 November 29, 2006 Don't blame me, I only talked to you on the phone. Try to get out in that Florida sunshine if you can. That can definitely help. BTW, I still sound like froggy. Mine's not Strep though...I don't think. Feel better. Unfortunately, it's that time of year.
