if so DS has strep ughh. I swear this child is always sick in the last 3 weeks he has had pink eye, double infection, cold for the last week and now tonight he has white spots and is not wanting to eat only drink. I am assuming strep??? oh and he doesn't go to daycare he stays with my MIL so you would think he wouldn't get sick so often!
Re: Does white spots on the throat always mean strep?
No, it does not. I have gotten them many times and I've never had strep throat. I have my dr do a culture - she always says "hmmm, looks like strep", but then the culture comes back and says it's not.
