Strep Sucks
I have strep. I haven’t had strep since Junior High. I’d forgotten how miserable it is. (Though it’s better than puking.) Thankfully I’m on my second day of antibiotics and will only be contagious for about5 more hours. (Cuz, it’s so precise, you know.) I do feel better today, but not great.
I was trying to figure out how I got it. The only thing I can come up with is from Sophia’s daycare class, though that seems unlikely, too. A couple kids in her class have had it. I’m thinking perhaps Sophia was a carrier, but didn’t actually get sick. Thus she brought it home and I was fortunate enough to get it. This is all theory, and we’ll never know, but… Now I’m just hoping I’ve been washing my hands and dishes enough to keep the kids (and Ron) from getting it.
Ron keeps laughing at me because strep is most common among school aged kids, 5-16. Well, I’m 32, quickly approaching 33. Yeah, not exactly a school aged kid. *sigh*
I think hubby has strep too. They did a rapid test and it came back negative, but they didn’t send it to the lab….fun times for all!
