Sick, sick, and getting sicker. :(

Hopefully it is something easily treated! So many things (mono, strep, swollen glands because of an infection, etc. etc.) can cause a sore throat and difficulty swallowing, I hope it is something other than "just a cold," where they just say "lots of fluids and rest ...."

Bundle up on the couch and I'd recommend just calling the doc the minute they open tomorrow and begging to be seen right away - they usually leave some time in the schedule for "emergencies." If they say they can't see you, ask for a referral to someone who can.

Oh I am so sorry to hear that you are feeling so lousy. As everyone has said, lots of fluids and lots of rest are the answer until you can get to a doctor. I hope they can fit you in tomorrow morning.
