Strep Throat
When I was younger I would get strep throat at least once a year and since my tonsils are already pretty large, my throat would get close to closing up all the way.
Its been probably 7 years since the last time I can remember having strep throat until the other day when I was in Chicago for some IBM Workflow Web Content Management training and on day 2 my body just fell apart. I was sweating, my muscules acked like the flu, I was extremely tired, terrible headaches and fever. It wasn’t good at all but I did make it through most of the final class.
Now a few days later I’ve called in sick to work and even though I know things are just pilling up (fast), I can’t do anything but lay in bed for 18 hours out of the day.
Jodi made me go to the doctor and he confirmed I had strep throat. They were also nice enough to give me a shot in my butt that (according to the nurse), has made some men cry. I didn’t cry but my knuckles hurt from squeezing so hard from the pain. It was either that or take pills for 10 days and with having such a hard time with swollowing, I decided to just get it over with.
So right now I’m up for probably another 15-20 minutes before I go back to bed again. It sucks and I can’t wait to get healthy again.
