Nope, Strep

Feb 24, 2009 16:47

So I don't have the flu. Bad news is I have strep. I think it's gotta be some world record to get strep in eight hours in one's mid-twenties with no previous infection. The hell.

Yup, that's our policy with the kids at work--no re-entry to school until they've been on antibiotics for at least 24 hours for strep.

I'd forgotten how miserable it is; I haven't had it in years and years. Thanks for the well-wishes.

Feel better!

Thank you! And Jason did go out and get me soy ice cream, thank goodness. ^__^ I'm feeling much better now, thanks to some antibiotics (first bacterial infection since vegetarianism-- alas! my streak is broken!
