Strep is back

Yep, diagnosed today. Only eight months since the first time I had it. And this time Strep Throat brought its friends Achey All Over, Gigantic Headache, and Fever. These guys together have caused me to sleep most of the last two days and disrupt the lives of some very helpful family members.

Then my sister tells me that she heard strep can "live" in someone...a carrier. And yet they won't see any strep symptoms. But they are still contagious, which is the reason I got it. I confirmed this phenomenon at the doctor's office today. Nice.

I'm going to bed now.

Christine, I totally sympathize with you. I haven't had it in a long time, but know it is awful. Hope you feel better very soon.
