I had a nasty tonsil last week and attacked it by repeated garglings of hydrogen peroxide, but from the sound of it you're waaaay too badly afflicted for that. I hope you get well soon, as I remember strep throat as the most horrendous pain I've experienced in my life. Of course, I am lining up for a life event that may topple it from its pedestal....glad that you're in good form otherwise! I think I feel movement from my core, but it may be either heartburn or similar (although I've never known heartburn to move around).

Gra!
