FantastaWoman answered Saturday June 4 2005, 4:48 am: I've had strep throat a lot and usually when I have it I get a fever, white spots on my tonsils, an upset stomach, and I am not able to talk. If you have a fever, I suggest visiting your doctor. [ FantastaWoman's advice column | Ask FantastaWoman A Question ]

xplisit15 answered Sunday May 29 2005, 11:23 pm: it could be mono. I had this last summer and my tonsils got so swollen that it was going to close off my throat if i didnt go see a doctor. I would go to a doctor as soon as possible. They told me if i didnt get in there i would have either had to have a needled jabbed into my throat to have the fluid removed from my tonsils or get the tonsils removed. Yeah, so go to a doctor. I dont mean to freak you out hun, i just dont want this to happen to you [ xplisit15's advice column | Ask xplisit15 A Question ]

If this continues the next few days, peRhaps it would be best if you scheduled an appointment with youR physician. [ Mackenzie's advice column | Ask Mackenzie A Question ]
xO_thAtS_hOTt_Ox answered Sunday May 29 2005, 3:58 pm: It sounds like it could possibly be strep throat. You should probably go to the doctor to find out if you actually do have it. I dont think it would be allergies because allergies usually aren't to that extent. Be sure to watch out for more symptoms of strep: headache, stomachache, and fever. If you have any of these in addition to your current symptoms, theres probably a good chance you have it. [ xO_thAtS_hOTt_Ox's advice column | Ask xO_thAtS_hOTt_Ox A Question ]

MicahsLilGirl answered Sunday May 29 2005, 11:33 am: Yes it could be strep throat but it could be alot of things.. i think the best thing to do right now is go to the doctor cause you apparently are sick and need some sort of medicine before it gets worse.. ♥ Nikki [ MicahsLilGirl's advice column | Ask MicahsLilGirl A Question ]
