Lightning strikes twice

[Oil]

Forgive me to ask this :
That serious to use antibiotics or see a doctor and do blood tests ?
Does it not pass on it own ?

Antibiotics help speed up the process for Strep.

Mono passes on its own as it is a virus

Well at least I get to work from home for a while :thumbsup:

When you're immune system is weak from fighting strep it's easy for something to step in. Why do you think pneumonia is such a big concern for patients fighting a bad bacterial infection?

oh, I had mono twice. Doc said that can't happen, but yep.

Oh, and make sure the doc knows what anti-biotic you're on. Many of them can cause terrible reactions when you have mono (like I did, looked like my whole body had radiation poisoning).

I have had strep throat a few times over the years and I think I took a different antibiotic each time. I had complications with one of them but don't remember the name. It wasn't penicillin though

While strep does usually pass on its own, and antibiotics don't typically shorten the symptomatic portion of the disease by more than a day, antibiotics will keep you from being 'typhoid mary' for a couple weeks after you're no longer symptomatic. Might also help you keep from getting reinfected if you're not spreading it around to everyone around you and keeping the pathogen going and going and going in your environment.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say you aren't quite sure what lightning is and its impact on the health.
