Just came back from the doctor after a miserable weekend with a sore throat, fever chills, the works. Turns out I have strep throat.
I was given the option of 10 days of antibiotics taken in pill form or one shot of penecillin. I took the shot. I wonder if anyone knows here if one form of treatment is more effective than the other?
I already feel a million times better since the shot but think that must just be sort of a placebo effect. Doc said I would begin to feel better in 2 days.
Any thoughts? I just hate the pill thing.
