Strep Sucks
The joys of parenthood include sharing in their illnesses. My kids were fine in a day, I was not. Got to see the Dr again for the first time in about 2-3 years. They gave me a choice of a penicillin shot or pills for my strep. I opted for the shot for 2 reasons. 1) Didn’t want to have to do another co-pay @ the pharmacy. 2) Shot was easier then swallowing a bunch of pills for a week or two.– my throat is still hurting like crazy.
So now I am just weak, hurts to talk, *really* hurts to swallow, amazingly sore all over, etc. (I don’t usually get sick so it is an interesting experience for me)
Luckily I early voted, so no worries there. I was going to volunteer as a poll worker today but that got canceled since there is no way I can do that w/ strep. Just a few minor campaign tweaks and stats monitoring then back to bed for me.
2 months ago I had strep for a month solid. I get it 2-3 times a year, so the antibiotics take longer for me. It sucks really bad, I know how you feel.
Ouch! I’m 5 days into my Antibiotics (Sinus Infection) and I’m not feeling any better.
I’m the same, Visit the doctor extremely rarely (My doctor approves, he says: “What are you doing here? There are sick people here!”)
I think this crappy antibiotic they gave me isn’t taking hold at all!
Well, hopefully you’re better now, hiring and all!
