So, I thought I had strep throat. Saturday night through Sunday day were pretty miserable. I don’t really feel better today, but I guess the fact that I actually have to do stuff is what is keeping me from crashing into the bed until Jesus comes back.
My throat hurts everytime I swallow, and my glands are swollen and they hurt. My throat is sore from the outside, as well. I feel like I was hit by a mack truck and they wouldn’t give me morphine. I had a fever the whole weekend, but of course, as soon as you get to the doctor NO fever. My strep swab came back negative and I should be happy about that, right? Well, I’m not really cuz she didn’t know what was wrong with me. She took a throat “culture” (it looked exactly like the swab to me) and said they would try to let me know by friday if any abnormalities showed up. Huh? So for a week I will be in the dark and miserable. So, she gave me a steroid shot in the butt to help me out, but so far I don’t feel the help. Are there any avid steroids users who can tell me when the pain goes away?!
