Omegacon: come for the relaxation, stay for the infection...

Apparently there was a Typhoid Strep Mary at Omegacon this year. Many people who attended are now laid up with Strep Throat. I'm home from work today.
Yesterday I was achy & had chills and by the time I went to bed my temp was up to 101.3. The temp is now down to a more normal but still slightly elevated 98.4.
Hellbob already had an appointment today at the doctor for some diabetes stuff, so I'm having him pick me up on his way by so that I can go with and get a strep test. I didn't have a sore throat yesterday, but I do today.

Because you just can't get enough of my sickly woes...

Went to urgent care. Rapid strep test was negative. It's not 100% though so the 24 hour one, which oddly enough takes a day to get the results from, may still turn up positive. I don't know yet at this point if I will be going to work tomorrow or not. I was feeling much better today, but the act of simply going to urgent care left me feeling wiped out. And if it does turn out to be strep after all I am still contagious. I guess we'll just see how I feel tomorrow morning.
