Hey me too, aren’t we lucky?
The plague I have, started on Wednesday too.
Got worse everyday, so this morning after shining a flashlight into my red splotchy throat I went to urgent care.
I must have looked bad (have laryngitis couldn’t talk, gave receptionist a note with the details) and she took me to a “special” waiting room. That’s where they send ya if you have the plague I guess.
Well, it’s called acute pharyngitis. Which means your throat is on fire, can’t swallow,fever, swollen lymphs in neck, body aches, headache etc.
Doc says it would be better if it were Strep throat because they can cure that. I have to live through it, he says 10 days is average.
He kindly prescribed me syryp with codiene in it for the throat pain.
Talk about a wasted Thanksgiving. Well, I did muster a few “thank yous” to God for providing me with medical care today. But I am still bummed I missed Thanksgiving.
Hope we all get better fast.
(weak cheers,,,cheers!)
Prayers to you both for speedy healing! (I detest being sick.)
I sure hope and Pray you are better soon.
I am so sorry you are so ill...sounds terrible to me!
I missed Thanksgiving last year because of “The Back” It had hit point agony and sitting at a dining table was impossible.
At least I can get relief after a few hours in bed with my feet up and ice packs. I’ll be off my feet mostly for awhile until it stops yelling at me.
I have never had pharyngitis.and hope I never do!
