It’s Probably Strep

Current mood: bearmood — sick sick
My tongue swelled up overnight to the size of my entire mouth cavity, so I dragged my sorry butt down to the doctor. It looks like strep. For an extra $30, he would've taken a culture to make sure, but hey, I'm poor. I try not to take drugs for things I don't really need to, but when my throat gets like this, I've learned my lesson before.

I can barely talk. I had to quickly call Marcus to get on iChat with me so I could tell him what was wrong and ask him to call me in sick to work. Even that short call caused such excruciating pain that I wanted to cry.
