What day is it anyway? I missed a week's worth of activity. I was hit, stricken, downtrodden and blind sided. The culprit is yet unidentified. However, the prime suspect is Strep throat. Labor Day weekend I had a fun-filled Saturday full of shopping, family, friends and a kids' party. I even bounced around in a moon walk. So the exhaustion I felt by night fall seemed reasonable. Then, some time down in the evening, as I sat enjoying a comedy show with friends, the jokes stopped being funny. The food was excruciatingly painful to consume and I was freezing. Wasn't anybody else cold? Just like that - I was feverish and slightly delirious. I spent the next 48 hours in bed - too weak to move.
On Monday, while the country was observing a national holiday, eating barbecue, relaxing and such. I longed for the return to business as usual. I was waiting for the blasted holiday to pass so I could go see a doctor.
As soon as the sun rose, I hit Park Central Family Practice. Then, I waited for a diagnosis and a cure, some relief. After some poking, x-rays and prodding, Dr. Manlove-Simmons surmised I have strep and prescribed some antibiotics. I'm on the road to recovery.
