I'm on a business trip with Strep Throat.

Recommended Posts

What, in fact, sucks more?

a) Being french-kissed by Karl Rove

b) Changing the ice in the men's urinals with your teeth

c) Nothing sucks more than being a thousand miles away, having to go to meetings all day while pounding Augmentin (Thank you my Doctor for trusting me and phoning it in) and Tylenol and Advil and whatever crap I can get my hands on...

:(

Who's Strep Throat, and why do you need him along for the trip?

:D:D

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.

There's ice in men's urinals? :o

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

Aww! Poor guy! I used to get strep at the drop of a hat when I still had my tonsils. Since they've been gone, nada. But I well remember the pain.

Feel better soon Peter! :)

you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel loquacious?' -- well do you, punk?

Try hot tea with honey and lemon. The honey is very soothing. One memorable trip to Vegas a few years back I found myself in the coffee shop in the Monte Carlo at 7 on a Sunday morning croaking "Do you have honey and lemon?" Two hours later I was at the walk-in clinic getting drugs.

Feel better.

I had that once... it was so painful I lost my appetite, and dropped 10 lbs in a week. I was screaming in pain when I swallowed. B|B|

Don't blame me, I only talked to you on the phone.:P

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.
