Mastitis?

Hi, I think I might have mastitis. I made an appointment with my OB, but I can't get in until Thursday. I started having weird body chills a couple days ago, and today I have been sweating and have throbbing pains. I don't have a temp, but I do have all the other symptoms ( it seems). Anyone have any experience with this? I have Been taking ibuprofen and defining lots of water. I know to apply heat too. I feel miserable! Does this sound like mastitis?

    Yes. :( I've had a rx called in for me without being seen by my OB after describing my symptoms over the phone. Do you have one spot more tender than everywhere else? An electric toothbrush can help unplug it.

    @SadieBee‌: there seems to be a spot on my left breast more sore then the other breast. I ended up calling my OB to phone in a prescription before I see him on Thursday. :)
