Possible strep throat

I have a wicked sore throat and a headache. The sore throat came on as the day progressed. My coworker has just gotten over strep for the SECOND time--she was first diagnosed just before Christmas. Apparently many people in our building have it so I wouldn't be shocked if I've caught it too.
I was supposed to go to the gym tonight but I wasn't feeling up to it since my throat feels like it is on fire and my head is pounding. I also didn't want to potentially expose people to whatever it is I may have. . . so I stayed home. I will see how I feel in the morning. If it is worse, I will take a sick day and go to the doctor. Ugh.

Sorry to hear you don’t feel good. If you caught it from work sounds like the people you work with need to learns to stay home when they are sick. I hope you feel better in the morning.
