Update

I decided to check our medicine cabinet last night, and way in the back was "Mr. Robitussin." The medicine is meant for coughs and congestion but I went ahead and took a dose. It is really not meant for tonsillitis (which is what I've got I guess) but I gave it a shot anyway. I ended up waking up in the middle of the night dripping in sweat. I guess I was releasing all the infection from my body. I woke up around 8am and felt pretty good. Still had a weird sensation in my throat but overall better than the day before. I decided to go for a run and maybe sweat some more. :) So I did, and I'm feeling good.

So who needs a Dr. when you have Mr. Robitussin and two functioning legs to go for a run!!!!! I hope this thing doesn't come back again, or else I will have to take your advice Minnie and run to the Dr's. I'm scared they may have to take them out!!! :(
