Sorethroat-strepthroat? Posted: 04-21-05 10:46am


Check with your doctor to find out whether it is strepthroat or not. He can do a small test to find out. And remember to take all the antibiotics. Do not stop in the middle even if you feel better.

Have been back to gp as I had allergic reaction to penicillin!!( which I shouldnt have been given) he says my throat is just a virus andnothing to worry about! 2 days after stopping penicillin, started having heart racing alll the time and getting short of breath. Went back to oncall dr, who tested my oxygen satuation which was 100%. Awoke this morning and sore throat back, really had enough! Nobody seems to want to help, and just think of me as being a hypochondriac!!!! :(
