So, obviously whatever I had needed an antibiotic because I was noticing definite signs of improvement on day 2 of the zpack (as I often do) and the tell tale sign of "Now it's time to start hacking your head off!" that indicates this kind of thing is on the way out. Rather than endure my still tore up throat and need to sleep on the couch, I have seen my doc for some tessalon and also to follow up on the throat thing.
I opened up, said "AH", and his eyes widened a bit, then he calmly said, "Ok, ever have prednisone?" And so yeah. Got that, got tessalon (if it doesn't work, will get codeine robitussin), and I should be on the mend now.
Thank. Fucking. God.
Thank all of you for your advice and for letting me rant. I really appreciate it and needed it.
Very often I need a good whine and to get things off my chest, especially when sick. To get things OUT of my chest, too, but as none of you came down to give me chest PTs, you didn't help with that. ;) (And really, oh man, I am having major hair balls, as it were.)
