    Sorry to hear you're sick Kay. Alot of people I know are sick too. It sounds like you may have something more than the average cold, as others have said. I hope you get it checked out tomorrow and you'll feel better soon


    I've been Boo'd...
    Thanks Barry!

    Oooh - this I can help! How to tell whether your runny nopse is a cold or allergies! Blow your nose. Look in the tissue - if the stuff that came out is clear, it's allergies. If it is cloudy, or yellow, or both, it's a cold or infection of some kind!

    This was told to me by the sniffly older man who was my first allergy doctor. He was great, but did retire. Sigh.

    That's me!

    I've only ate a half can of soup and a little bit of mashed potatoes. I'm watching a movie right now and i'm wanting so badly to munch on something. It's getting even harder to swallow/talk. I HOPE they are open tomorrow!! It's even harder to drink something.

    Gah.

    Hope you get feeling better soon, Kay!

    As a sidenote, my tonsils were removed when I was younger...I'm not really allergic to much and that didn't change, I'm certainly not allergic to dogs.

    Sorry to hear you're feeling so crappy, Kay.

    Have you tried just plain old aspirin? Not only will it help with the pain, but it helps keep swelling down too. I was also going to suggest the salt water gargle, but I see you've done that already.

    I'm glad you're getting it checked out though, because it could be strep throat which is no fun (as you can tell) and can be cured with antibiotics.

    I know what you mean. I've been sick on and off for like 2 months. Everytime I get better I pick something else up. I hope you feel better soon. Get some rest!

    I'm sure the next 24 hours are going to feel like forever It really sucks being sick,but being sick and not being able to get into the drs because of the holidays are even worse). We were just talking about the drs being close...too bad if your sick, they're on holiday
    Honestly if you feel any worse I'd suggest going to the er. They could at least get you started on something to hopefully get you feeling better or let you know if you do have tonsilitis.

    Big {{{HUGS}}} to you. Feel better soon.
