I used to get strep throat a lot. Maybe 3 times a year. I don't know why but I don't get it anymore. It really knocks you out. Makes you sick, and makes your throat feel so bad!


myLot reputation of 97/100. stacy624 (1416)   ranked 227 out of 11,229 in health  10 months ago

You said it so correct for me anyways=) I felt it did knock me out and I'm still struggling and does make you very ill I could not believe how sick I really got. Believe it or not I didn't get the sore throat until the very last Next time I will be sure to get check a lot sooner than I did ......WOW Thank you so much for your response

I haven't had strep throat in years, thankfully. But can remember how aweful it hurt. I used to get it alot as a child, until we switched doctors and that doctor told my mom to make sure our tooth brushes thrown away, and start out fresh, so make sure you do that so that can help decrease your chances of getting it again later.

Hope your feeling better soon.


myLot reputation of 97/100. stacy624 (1416)   ranked 227 out of 11,229 in health  10 months ago

I didn't even think of that Thank you so much for your help! I will be sure to replace my tooth brush for I know I don't want to go through this ever again=)
Thank you again
Stacy

When I was younger I used to get Strep Throat twice a year EVERY year. The very last time that I got it, I also contracted Scarlet Fever. My entire body began to burn with fever and within two days I was peeling EVERYWHERE and I do mean everywhere! I remember this because I used to go to the bathroom and pull almost a foot of skin off my arms and legs. It was horrifying! My mother hated having to bathe me in the calamine lotion because I would just shed as she applied it to my skin. I was about 8 then and I thought it ws cool once I didn't feel sick anymore. I was a human snake! lol But it can get worse, so take your meds and try not to give it to anyone else, because it is VERY contagious:)


myLot reputation of 97/100. stacy624 (1416)   ranked 227 out of 11,229 in health  10 months ago

WOW you really had your far share I am so sorry that you had to experience such illness like you did but Thank God you are OK=) I will be sure to finish all my meds and hope for a quick recovery
Thank you so much for sharing your story and again I am so Happy you are OK now=)


myLot reputation of 96/100. mariedenae (109)   ranked 6,051 out of 11,229 in health  10 months ago

Thanks Stacy! It was a bad experience getting it every year, but after that last time, for some reason I never got it again. I think my body just became immune somehow! But thanks for your concern:) All I have to look forward to now is if my own children (3, 2 and 1) ever get it and having to look at them as "human snakes" lol Happy Mylotting!

P.S.

Get well soon:)

I had Strep throat in the early part of winter this yar. It was very painful and I had to take two rounds of anti-biotics to conquer it. Hope I don't have that pleasure again! LOL

Hello stacy624! I'm sorry to hear that you have Strep Throat! My husband had that a few years ago. That's the worst I've ever seen him sick. He refused to go to a doctor, though, so he suffered through it:( A doctor later told us that untreated Strep could lead to heart problems, so he's going to doctor next time! Hopefully, there won't be a next time, though. Feel better!
