radegundThis is becoming remarkably tedious. A couple of weeks ago, I took my manky tonsils to the doctor and got put on a course of Augmentin, which I took after waiting a couple of days to see would the tonsils get over themselves of their own accord.
And I got better.
Then I got worse again.
I spent Monday and yesterday at work, trying to pretend that I was fine, that my sore throat was just an allergic reaction to the dust and that my thumping, painkiller-proof headache was down to the paint fumes (we've just moved into a newly refurbished office) or the strain of adjusting to my new 19" flat-screen monitor (poor, poor me).
But no. I spent last night in classic hot-and-shivery delirious-dreams mode, and finally gave up this morning and admitted that yes, I am ill. Again.
Doctor confirms that it's a fine, strapping streptococcal throat, and has put me on a two-week course of penicillin. Happy days.
