not that it's EF...but have some Cepacol. I wubs it.
Not EF, either, but I think I need some antibiotics. This is feeling more and more like strep.
Fever + body aches + fire-breathing = strep. At least for me.
I JUST got over this, except I had laryngitis and bronchitis - and my throat felt absofreakinlutely RAW. Like a wild animal had scraped the skin off and then it was lit on fire. I really feel for you. Cepacol was my BFF.
4 criteria for strep: sore throat with white spots (exudative pharyngitis), NO cough, fever and lymph nodes. If you have 3-4/4 most docs will just treat with antibiotics. Otherwise its more likely a virus.
Hope you feel better, I've been there and it sucks.

Sounds like it. There is seriously nothing more miserable than strep. Nothing.

Why, thank you. I do indeed try my best.
So, do you think a visit to the doc is in order tomorrow?
Gotcha. We actually do have a fairly nice urgent care up here. I was impressed when I took DD there for a recent illness.
