Strep Throat For The Past 5 Days
...and all you get is this lousy blog post.
I still love you, it just hurts my throat to say it.
Here's a nice pic of the Salford Lads Club, suitable for desktops.

Dude, I had strep last year for two months. I keep trying to tough it out, because my insurance sucked. Three weeks later, I realized that I was taking four advil every two hours to keep the fever down so I could work. I went to the Doctor and he took a look at my throat and jumped back and covred his mouth with his other hand and said, I don't even need to swab, here is a prescription for antibiotics. I had to take a second course that was double the dose to kill the infection. I still have the pits in the back of my throat from the massive colonies of strep bacteria.
::hug:: to make you feel better.

I was wondering where you were.
Honey, you've been sick a lot lately. Now take your meds and get all better.
We don't want a sick Pop Star!
That is an excellent picture of your kittykins. Why have you been sick so much lately! I had strep a few months ago and found it fascinating to look at my swollen and petri-dish tonsils. Did you?
Get better man. You're always sick it seems. Vitamins! Vitamins!
Fight the power!
chuckles - 2 MONTHS?!?! fuck THAT nonsense.
smarty - i needed that hug.
ag - on the meds now, but they're not the fun meds.
kate - this one didn't give me the white-spotted throat that looks like some crazy colorblindness test, for some reason.
indygirl - i DO need vitamins, and DO need to start taking care of myself.
fulsome - YES! FIGHT THE POWER!
Sorry to hear you're ill -- hope your feeling better. Let me know if I can offer you a drink in lieu of the antibiotics/hugs/vitamin prescriptions.
Not fun meds? Why take them?
Medicice is the work of Satan. Better health through well practiced anatomical impossiblility!
come back soon!
My strep was so bad, I had 1 cm diameter colonies. The first round of antibiotics took care of the fever for three days, but then the strep kicked that bitch of a pill to the curb. It got so bad, I thought it might help to use a toothbrush to scrape away the colonies. That just left me with bleeding sores in my throat which were promptly covered with more bacteria. I threw that brush away immediately after. My sis-in-law doctor said my scars are pretty impressive for a first world case of strep.
