I went down with a nasty sore throat in the early hrs of Thurs morning - forced myself to drive 130 miles for a meeting, but once there went green and sweaty and passed out cold. My throat has virtually closed up and is so painful that I haven't eaten or drunk anything since Thurs - I can't seem to swallow properly. My glands are visibly swollen, I had a high temperature during Thurs (thats gone down now) and I have deep throbbing pain in my joints.
I dragged myself to the GP yesterday - he looked at my throat for a long time and said the white lesions were typical of oral thrush. After checking my blood sugar he sent me away with a single dose of Fluconazole 150mg, plus some Nystatin drops.
I sceptically asked if oral thrush was supposed to make you feel this ill, and he just shrugged. I'm taking paracetemol with dihydracodeine every 4 hrs, but apart from easing some of the pain in my neck and joints, I feel no better.
