strep owie, too

yah, uhuh, i got me a case of strep. i went to the doctor on thursday, and i got bawled out for coming in so late. he said it was BAAAD. it was extreme pain to swallow (i'd stopped trying, spit cup in hand), and my throat was so red and swollen he said if i'd left it a bit longer it might have caused difficulty breathing, or even choking. so....

instant antibiotics and liquid t3.... and he said if the antibiotics don't make a difference in a day or so, i'd have to go on intravenous antibiotics! .... well, fortunately they kicked in, is saturday evening now and i'm a little more mobile, but still sleeping LOTS.

it figures the one time i take an owie to the doctor and he doesn't say, "oh, that's nothing to worry about", i get in trouble from him! lol.

i'll be at church tomorrow, even if it means sleeping on the pews (i'm catching a ride with debbie at 8:30 am). three days of antibiotics, not a chance that i'm contagious anymore!!!!! lol!!!

btw the boil is healing up fine. it's one of those God things. got me some figs right next door! (heehee) (see isaiah 38:21, God is hilarious! and awesome!!!! yeah!!!!)

  2. Wow, strep is awful. Don't you hate that, when you try to just ignore it, or try and make it go away. Then the Doctor is upset.. Oh well can't win them all :)
    Hugs!!
