Not Strep So Far

Posted at 11:13 pm MST to Miscellaneous

I'm getting so tired of this stupid cough/throat infection. It sort of pretends to go away, then comes back for another round. I finally gave my doctor's office a call, just in case it really is bacterial, this time, or I'd picked up a secondary infection they could do something about.

The throat swab gives preliminary results in 15 minutes. Mine came back negative for strep, which I pretty much expected. Next round of results (they see if there's anything there they can culture) in 48 hours.

I stopped at the supermarket on my way home from the lab, which was fortunate in terms of acquiring delicacies of the season. I got hot-cross buns. (I love hot cross buns.) And Girl Scout cookies -- three Thin Mints, one Trefoils, and a box to be delivered to the armed forces over seas.

But man, am I exhausted.
