I LOVE Amoxicillin

I'm starting to feel a LOT better.  I think I may have (had) strep throat.  I realized today that all the symptoms added up, including the fever.  When a person gets strep throat they usually get prescribed antibiotics.  They didn't check for strep throat at the hospital, but they gave me antibiotics anyway (I have no idea why, really).  I read this morning online that about 24-36 hours after taking antibiotics most people start feeling relief from strep throat symptoms.  When I hit the 24 hour mark today my throat was worse than ever and I didn't think it would be getting any better before tomorrow at the earliest- but now it's about 36 hours after I started the antibiotics and my throat is feeling almost entirely NORMAL.  Isn't that crazy, how much it changed in just 12 hours and I didn't even sleep during that time?  Anyway, that stuff is great.  I'm feeling better than I've felt in days and I can't wait to go to sleep.  Just wish Eric would get off work already.
