I did with DS3. I was on antibiotics for 10 days, but was feeling much better within a few days after starting on them. I didn't have a lot of pain in my breast, but I was so sick and had a high fever when I finally went in the see my OB.
Mine showed up in the middle of the night. I called the OB and got meds that next morning and felt way better by the following morning. My MIL came over and basically just brought LO to me to feed and handled everything else. I spent the rest of the time sleeping which I think helped a ton.

Thanks ladies, this is hopeful that I'll feel better over the weekend. I'm already feeling better than yesterday's misery. I wouldn't wish this on anyone, especially a new mom!
Had gotten an RX for 7 days. I had fever, hot/cold sweats and some tenderness in both breasts (only in certain spots). Literally felt like the flu. Good luck. Took me about 3-4 days to get rid of the fever. Odd though, I'd only get it at certain times of the day.
