my throat kinda hurts

[Saphire]

As to the laughing here...it would be a boring world indeed if we were all the same, with the same likes and dislikes, same attitudes and outlooks. Why can't we just accept that not everyone is going to be like everyone else and move on??

Why indeed. I see the sharks are circling on this thread. How Disney-like. Sad, sad, sad.

Flower's Child, I hope you are having a good day and feeling better.

I am not sure what you had, but you could have been spreading it to many others at the parks and character meals. You might have made others sick, especially kids. This could have had a negative effect on their once in a lifetime trip to WDW. When one is as sick as you say you were, one needs to seek out medical attention and stay away from the general population.

BTW untreated strep throat can lead to other more serious medical problems. Since this is your second bad sore throat in a few months, a Dr. visit is a must.

I don't think I have strep throat this time. It just reminded me of when I was really sick. Also as for my DisneyWorld trip, I believe lots of people had something and I guess it was just going around. It was a big trip for me and I was not just going to stay in the hotel room for 7 days and do nothing when I had paid a lot of money for my hotel so I could go to the theme parks and enjoy myself on my birthday. I do see your point, but really there is only so much that one has to do.

What I had was not something that that serious. It was not like I had to go to the hospital or anything. And the first 2 days or so where the worst, I did get a lot better for the rest of my trip. When I got back home I went to the doctor and he just said I had a bad infection and that it had been going around. So he gave me something for it and it went away. I might have picked this up while I was in DisneyWorld so I am sure it was allready going around and it did not matter if I stayed in the hotel room or not.

If someone is really sick at DisneyWorld I would not expect them to stay in their hotel room for the whole trip. Even if I get sick because of them I still would not expect them to stay in the hotel room for their whole trip. I feel they paid good money to come to DisneyWorld and they have a right to go to the theme parks. Anyways I am not upset with your post I just wanted to give my opinion

Do you have allergies? Whenever my throat and head hurts, it's usually allergies but it feels like a cold. Drink lots of water, take some headache medicine, and get some rest. I'd also suggest making a doctor's appointment if your throat is really hurting. It could be allergies, it could be a cold, or strep. You never know, it wouldn't hurt to make sure.
Hope you feel better.

Hope you are feeling better!

Ya know folks, the same thing I tell my CHILDREN could certainly apply to the internet and message boards.....IF you don't have anything nice to say - then don't say anything at all!!!

Why the need to be rude or mean? I just don't get it. We are all not the same.

Thanks Bambi is such a great movie The Father of Thumper was a wise Rabbit If the movie Bambi, the mother of Thumper says " Thumper what did your Father tell you ? " And Thumper knew that his Father told him " If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all "

Also I don't get it when some people act like I don't put up opinions that are different from my opinions. Mickeyfan2 posted his opinion and I did not really agree with it, but he was nice and respectful about it. Also I really did believe that Mickeyfan2 made some good points. So I was nice and respectful to him.

Anyways I did sleep well last night, but I need to get back to sleep. So I am going to try to eat something and go back to sleep

Why can't we just accept that not everyone is going to be like everyone else and move on?? Man, I just knew when I opened this thread where it was going to be going. And, I was right. Such mean spiritedness from people here. If you don't agree with someone, or you don't care for their style of posting, then move on and don't bother posting. I always thought that a diverse community was a good thing...guess that's not the case here.

Why the harshness against the OP? I don't get it. All he did was mention he had a sore throat. Then we get comments about schizophrenia medication? Then comments about making sure the OP doesn't infect people on past Disney trips? Not only were those comments way, way off topic, but they were completely unnecessary. The OP merely talked about how sick he was on a previous Disney trip. Quick show of hands of all the people who have NOT gotten sick at Disney on at least one trip. My hand is down. That doesn't mean I didn't try to still make the best of my trip while also taking care not to get others sick. And the schizophrenia comments were borderline hateful. What did the OP do to you people to deserve that?

Editing to say: I was pretty angry when I wrote the above, so I just wanted to clarify that the harsh comments weren't by everyone. Some have been kind and helpful to the OP. Others, well you know who you are.

To the person(s) who made the Clozapine (Clozaril) remark:

Cut it out. I mean, what the hell?

Clozapine is a SERIOUS drug and I mean SERIOUS. Making light of it or suggesting that someone on a forum needs to take it is just plain wrong.

I so agree. What is happening to the DIS Boards?

Everytime FC post something it seems like people can't wait to pounce on him. DIdn't anyone ever hear of live and let live.

FC - I hope you are feeling better today!

To the mean posters with such rude comments - GET A LIFE!

I've got an awful sore throat this week too. I hope you (and me!) feel better soon.

FlowersChild--first off, I am sorry you are not feeling well. I find that gargalling with baking soda and drinking some hot tea with honey can really help when I have a sore throat. I am surprised that you can eat tomato soup with a sore throat that always causes me pain if my throat hurts. Glad it works for you though.

Regarding the above I just wanted to make a gentle point. (I can't help it, I am a mom ) If you went to the Dr and he gave you medicine that helped it means the infection you had was contagious. I would not want anyone to miss a Disney trip either and can understand just dealing with it and going on with your trip. In the future though, you might think about going to Urgent Care and getting some medication right away. That way, you will feel better sooner AND within 24 hours you would not be contagious anymore. Everyone wins there!!

Hope you feel better soon!

You know I did think about maybe seeing if I could go to a clinic at DisneyWorld. But I did not know where it was or anything and how that would work. It never got sick like that in DisneyWorld. But if it happens again ( like on my 30th birthday week vacation ) I might try that

Thanks for your post and the advice that you gave me Well I don't eat honey since I am a Vegan and I would think about the tea, but that might keep me awake and I need to try and get a lot of sleep. But still thanks for the advice Also I want to thank all the other people who gave me advice and I want to thank all the other people who defended me and who where nice to me

a spoonful of absinthe

Remember when Mary Poppins sang that? I think it was cut from the movie.

Hope you feel better. Clairtin is good for drainage (which can make your throat sore).

 

[TheBellhop]

Yes you are right. His post as well as others where so uncalled for. I reported a couple rude members just now !!! I can't believe this, I am not even feeling well and these jerks can't even leave me alone !!!
