Suzanne,
Now you sound like me! I generally won't go to the doctor until I'm so sick I practically have to crawl there! My throat has been hurting too, and I have the same problem, feeling all dried out from breathing only through my mouth at night, I don't think its strep, though. I only had that once... it was when I was pregnant with my youngest and it hurt so bad I could barely stand it!
I hope you feel better soon.
Sounds like the first February Secret Pal package was delivered to someone today... and its not even February yet.... some of you ladies are WAY too efficient! (I'm not one of them!!) haha.... but my package will go out on time!
And don't you like it when you finally go to the doctor and the first thing they say is how are you feeling?'. The other day I said fine, then I looked at the nurse and said no I'm not fine. If I was I wouldn't be gere. I mean my doc is nice to look at but I am not paying a co-pay to look at something that I can't have. LOL I have freinds in Ohio who have the weird funk also. You all get better real soon.
