I did the salt/warm water gargle, some honey to coat my throat and used my Cepacol Lozenges.

This has been so weird, things went from uncomfortable to scary!
I was convinced it was strep, I've had it before.
But then....I developed a fever ( 100.7 F ) , got shivers, shakes, body aches all over...from shoulders, back, buttocks and legs.
A slight headache, nausea ( but no upchucking ) and I slept straight through for over 10 hours, waking up feeling no better.
Phooey!
Off to Emerg I went.
Long story short....( I was there for 3 hours ) got a throat swab for strep, an antibiotic prescription and a Covid-19 test.
Will be in self isolation for 72 hours.
Scary stuff!!
