Need some hugs...but don't get too close...lol
Well I am on day 4 of strep throat. I have not been this sick in a long time. The Dr. said it is one of the worst cases of strep she has ever seen. Lucky me. Today is the first day I have been able to swallow liquids without immense pain. Gosh...I would kill for some real food. The only things I have been able to eat are soup, applesauce, and ice cream. I'm going stir crazy from being at home. ok...I think I am done whining now...lol. I am praying that Elijanna doesn't come down with this as well.

Re: Need some hugs...but don't get too close...lol
I had strep throat last spring. We litterly went to the docs office to get meds and left to go to Indiaina right afterwards. Talk about a horrible vacation...but, we had been planning to visit my brother in Indy for several months and hadn't been down to his home. (he moved while I was eight months pregnant, so we had to wait to have baby number three and then the weather turned bad). I feel for you girl... (hugs)

Re: Need some hugs...but don't get too close...lol
Queen that pic totally made me laugh out loud. I needed that.
Thanks ladies...I am totally going nuts. I haven't done much but watch t.v. and sleep. I am not sure what is worse the actual strep or the fever that came with it. I was pushing 103 for a couple of days. I am about to venture out to walmart to pick up one final prescription...joy oh joy. It's only 9* outside. Should be fun.

Re: Need some hugs...but don't get too close...lol
I used to get strep throat at least 2-3 times a year. I have learned how to stop it from taking over.
When you feel even the slightest sore throat coming on- start gargling listerine. I make sure I gargle at least 4-6 times a day. I gargle the icky brown listerine- it keeps the bacteria from taking over and helps kill some germs. Also try drinking warm tea with 1/2 teaspoon of powdered cloves. cloves has a natural numbing agent. Recently I heard that sugar helps with the suppression of coughing. Not sure if that would work. I do know that a spoon ful of honey helps soothe the sore throat. But I do swear by the gargle of listerine. It works. It helps with the tonsil stones too.

I'm not saying forget what you lost
I suppose there's a purpose in pain
What we make of ourselves has a cost
And it's paid every time we take hold of the reins

Queen -- I love it! I've never had strep throat. Is it like a really bad sore throat?

Gloria---you kill me, girl! *buwaahaahaa!!*
Sending you lots of hugs and a "poor baby!" to boot.
Hope you feel better soon. I'm nursing a cold that I brought back from the cruise myself. *sniffle*![Confused :?](./images/smilies/smile_confused_16.png)
