Sick, Sick, Sick

That's what I am today. That strep throat I had a few weeks ago? Came back, or never went away, I'm not sure which. If they want to give me the shot today I'm going to take it, I can't afford these $25 a bottle herbs that make me feel better but I go through one a day. I'm on the fourth right now. Expensive health!

Update: Went to the doctor's. It's strep again. Another round of antibiotics - different this time. Didn't do the shot because it was the same as the antib that didn't work. Tears. Just want to be well. Lots of Friends episodes and Hubby's going to get Meet The Fockers and Chicken Sizzling Rice Soup. And my prescription. Please God let this go away.

Oh, I'm so sorry you are under the weather!! *Definetly* go for the shot. I had a severe case of strep a year ago novemeber and within 24 hours of the shot I finally started heading uphill!

Hope you feel better real soon! :-)

That sucks. Sending good health vibes your way. Take care!

:( Sorry you are sick. Make sure you rest lots.

mommyd said...

So sorry you feel icky. I hate strep throat. Drink lots of liquids and tea. Tea always makes my throat feel better. I love NICE lozenges. They make me feel better too. Take care of yourself and rest up!

Cecilia said...

Lots of tea with honey and lemon will help....I'm sorry to hear that you're down that road again. Although that gives you a great excuse to crash in front of tv with your favorite shows and movie...and get super pampered and spoiled by your loved ones!

This time do make sure you get lots of rest, ok? I know you have been running around a lot and this is probably why you didn't completely recover from your last strep episode.

Take care, sweetie! Lots of warm thoughts coming your way. (((hugs)))

Ugh! You poor thing! How sweet of your hubby to take care of you. I hope you get to feeling better SOON!

Kismet said...

Ugh. I am so sorry. We have some sort of head cold/chest cough going on around here that we seem to be passing back and forth! It is my turn again. Sigh, I am so tired of us being sick.
Feel better...soon.
~K!

strep is the worst!! I got it last summer and did the shot thing. I'll be praying for you, hope you feel better soon!

Allison said...

Just thinking about you and hoping you are feeling better! Hugs (from a distance)!! :-)

Stacey said...

So sorry you're feeling lousy - especially during this time of year! If you like it, peppermint tea is absolutely wonderful for soothing a sore throat. You've got lots of good advice here, so I won't add any more - but I am sending lots of get well wishes your way!! Take care!

Mommak said...

Awwww! I'm sorry its strep. I hope you feel better soon. That chicken soup sounds yummy and "Meet the Fockers" looks really funny. I have it from netflix but have not watched it yet. You'll have to tell me what you thought of it. Feel better!! *hugs*

You poor thing!! Get lots of rest and just let your hubby take care of you. Drink your chicken soup and sprite and sleep and don't worry about your blog or anything else... love you sweetie!

Adrianne said...

OH HOW SAD I AM FOR YOU. I had yucky strep twice within a 6 month time period and BOTH times I think I saw the angel of death coming for me - I'm serious. In fact, I think I got to the point of wishing for death. It would have been soooo much better than suffering with ST...anywhooooos hopefully by now you're feeling a tad bit better - miss you so! Rest up and take care, sweetie!!! >
