Right now, does a white patch on the back of your throat necessarily mean an infection --and one that requires an antibiotic? (Can I just curl up and let this ride?)

Right now, Skootz is right. A white patch on the back on the throat is usually strep throat. The good news is antibiotic's will take care of it. I'd get to a doctor and start antibiotic's asap. HP I'm sorry your feeling bad right now but get your meds and you'll be feeling better really soon!

Right now, thank you! And ack! Do you know I've never had strep? Kind of unbelievable, huh? Well, looks like I'll call whichever doc is on call today--maybe I'll get meds without having to go anywhere. Hope!

Right now, wow HP you've never had strep throat - that's amazing! You'll probably need to go to the doctor so they can swab your throat to make the diagnosis. Then start your meds. From my experience you'll be feeling better within 24 - 48 hours. Also, strep is very contagious, so keep an eye on the rest of your family. Every time my son get's strep, I usually end up with it too. I'm glad your going to the doctor. Feel better .

Right now it is one of those glorious autumn days that should be savored knowing winter is coming. I made myself a fabulous breakfast and ate it with Jake on the patio. The laundry is done. The car is packed. I have time to kick back and relax. All is good in my world at exactly this moment in time.

Right now I'm hoping Herckleperckle has been able to get some meds to start healing that strep. Right now San Antonio is broadcasting their battle of the bands (high school). It brings back a lot of memories of the University of Georgia stadium for me.

Right now, I was looking to see if there was a post from HP saying how she's feeling. Hopefully we'll hear from her later. Strep throat is no fun.

right now, we are so sad. some of you may recall me talking of my son's friend who is in the military and always comes to see me when he is in town. he also calls from germany every week or so... well, we had dinner with his mom and dad on friday. last night, the mom was killed when the mom and dad were on a motorcycle ride coming back from yosemite. we got a call from the son this morning. we went to the dad's and he asked how we knew already and we told him richard had called us. dh got several cuts of meat and cheese and took over a large tray of them along with some rolls, salad and dressing. i have a hell of a work week and know the son will need me when he gets in from germany. pray for the husband and sons. kathy was a vibrant, beautiful woman, involved in many clubs. she will be very much missed. i am so sad.

right now, thanks...every time i think of her, i start crying. dd had to work today (we do the same job at the golf course) so i went in and worked with her, without clocking in. she was really devastated, too, as they had done a 'relay for life' team together and were already planning for a fun team next year. i figured between the two of us, we could do one job today. ++++++++++++++++++++ right now, i was going to come on here today and brag about dd's golf tournament yesterday. she was the only kid with a group of 50 principals, teachers, superintendants, etc. who played in a memorial tournament. she got longest drive out of 12 women (225 yards) and won some nice prizes. that was what i was hoping to share today! so, to give dd her due and not share only tragic news, cheers to caitlin for a game well-played. isn't it strange how life works? i think kathy died about the time dd was getting her awards...
