Feeling About 40-50% Better

[becka]

Well the good news is that I am FINALLY feeling a little better. I am just so thankful that it appears I might finally be getting over this thing. I know I have been whiney about it but dang it - it HURT! I NEVER want strep again (not that I wanted it in the first place either ).

I am still running a very low grade fever (around 99) so my body is still fighting the infection but the pain seems to have subsided a significant amount. However, just getting up and getting to work has left me exhausted. I have a feeling I may feel pretty run down for another week or so...any experiences you can share?

I have two doctor appointments this week (mine and DS's), a parents as teachers meeting, an appointment to have some life insurance papers delivered and I need to study for a commercial insurance test that is next Monday morning. It is going to be a busy week for someone who is feeling run down.

Becka, I sure hope you are able to get some rest with all you have to get done. Take care of yourself!!

I'm glad you're feeling better, becka! I hope you are 100% better soon.

Glad you're getting better, Becka. Yeah, you'll probly feel run down for a week or two. I'm a strange one when I get strep. I used to get it every year in school, and I almost never had physical symptoms other than sheer exhaustion and my knees going out from under me. We'd take me in, and yep, it'd be strep. It'd usually take me a week or two to get over the exhaustion.

Good luck and hang in there!
