Getting sick

Gargle with warm salt water... may sound crazy but do it 5 or so times it'll help!

If it's Strep, you'll get antibiotics that will make you feel better within a day. It honestly might be a better situation than a bad cold virus in terms of recovery time. Good luck! I hope you get better soon

Double post!

2 tablespoons lemon juice, 8 oz of hot water and however much honey you'd like and GET LOTS OF REST! The best you can! Feel better.

Hey date twin - my fiance is sick too! Luckily it's not too bad but I'm just trying to stay as far away from him as possible between now and then haha. Good luck!! Hope you feel better.

Thanks, I'll try the salt and water.

Oh no- strep is the worst! It's good that you're going to the DR tomorrow. I second gargling warm water mixed with salt until you go in. I hope you feel better!

Fingers crossed it's not strep & that you are feel great for your wedding day!

May the force be with you.

I had terrible stomach pains the week of the wedding and felt sick everyday but I think it was just the stress getting to me because I was fine on the day of the wedding!!

Drink lots of fluids and get as much extra rest as you can spare! I hope you feel better, OP!

I ended up with a UTI the week before and was on antibiotics for half of our honeymoon. It definitely sucked...

I hope you get some medicine tomorrow and feel better soon!! Good luck!!

Feel better

Ahhh one of my worse fears! Hope you feel better!!

Last year I had the most godawful sore throat and I was convinced it was strep. It wasn't so the dr didn't give me antibiotics, and instead told me to take Motrin round the clock. I took as much as allowed in a 24 hour period, round the clock, and that combined with gargling warm salt water really did work. Hope you feel better!!

Get to the doc (even a doc in a box can diagnose strep) to get formally diagnosed and get on the antibiotics ASAP. Have emergen-c every day, gargle with salt water, drink lots of herbal tea with honey, and rest up! Feel better!

Marshmallows. Trust me!

I I'm just getting over a flu that knocked me out for three days. It started with a sore throat. I swore it was strep. Gargle with salt dissolved in warm water. Get to a doctor asap for meds in case it is strep. Your immune system is less than stellar probably due to all the stress.

Im just coming off the same thing. Wasnt strep, but the pain was unbelievable! It started last Tuesday and Im almost 100%. Dr didnt give me antibiotics as it is all viral. Get rest and lots of water!

Allergies? Mine are flaring up. Best of luck to you.
