I have been sick practically sincy my son was born. I understand that my immune system is low after having major abdominal surgery, and not getting very much sleep - however I am at the end of my rope with sickness.I got sick Jan 18th with a sore throat, achy body and fever and chills. I went to the Dr. on the 22nd and she did a swab - came back positive for Strep Throat. I did the 10 days of antibiotics, and finished that maybe 7 days ago. After I started to get well, my kids got sinus colds - and I had to deal with them getting better. By friday last week - Feb 8th, my throat started hurting again. Over the weekend I felt like I was getting worse again. Tired, achy, chills, sore throat, stuffed upper sinuses. I went to the Dr. today and she says my throat looks horrible. Thinks I have Strep again. She did an other swab. She says if it's positive again, my whole family will have to get tested to see if someone is re-infecting me, and they will do antibiotics too. Hubby has also had sore throat off and on, but not to the extent I have been.
