The Worst Sore Throat EVER
WARNING: gross pictures ahead...
I am just now, finally recovering from the worst sore throat I have ever had. It lasted 9 days. I could barely breathe, speak, or eat. Actually, I continued to stuff my face, but it HURT every time I swallowed.
I stole this picture from a foreign website (http://www.akh-consilium.at/) but this is almost what my throat looked like, except on a much smaller scale, and without so much exudate. At first, I thought I had strep throat but I strolled down to the ER where I'm working now and the test was negative... plus, another clue was that it wouldn't go away. I think it might have been coxsackie... I heard it was going around. NINE days later, I'm finally better, but I'm really bitter that it stayed for so long...
Plus, we had to cancel our reservations at Charlie Trotter's because I wasn't going to spend hundreds of dollars on the best meal of my life, when I still had the worst sore throat my entire life. arggg.
