BETA STREP IN THROATFrom: JAMIE (anonymous@obgyn.net)Thu, 31 Oct 2002 16:38:04 -0600 (CST)
I WAS JUST TOLD THAT I HAVE BETA STREP IN MY THROAT. THE DOCTOR SAID IT IS JUST BATA STREP NOT AN A OR A B TYPE. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? ALL I READ IS THAT IT COULD BE IN THE VAGINA, NOTHING ABOUT THE THROAT. I WENT TO THE DOCTOR ON OCTOBER 1ST WITH A SOAR THROAT, SWOLLEN GLANDS IN NECK AND MILD FEVER 99. HE DIDN'T DO A THROAT CULTURE JUST A BLOOD TEST THAT SAID MY WHITE BLOOD CELL COUNT WAS HIGH. HE GAVE ME AMOXICILIN. THE SYMTOMS DID NOT GO AWAY. I WENT TO ANOTHER DOCTOR STILL NO DIAGNOSIS. ON OCTOBER 29TH AFTER PERSISTING THAT THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH ME THEY DID A THROAT CULTURE. IT CAME BACK POSITVE FOR BETA STREP OF THE THROAT. A WHOLE MONTH HAD GONE BY WITHOUT BEING TREATED PROPERLY. I READ THAT IF NOT TREATED SOON IT COULD BE FATAL. ACTUALLY GOING INTO THE BLLOD STREAM AND CAUSING SHOCK. HOW SOON DOSE IT NEED TO BE CAUGHT BEFORE TO MUCH DAMAGE IS DONE, IF ANY? IS A MONTH TO LONG? MY DOCTOR JUST PUT ME ON ZITHROMAX. MY SYMTOMS THROUGHOUT THE MONTH WERE AND STILL ARE SOAR THROAT, FATIGUE, HEADACHE, CHEST PAINS, BLOOD SHOT EYES, FEELINGS OF PASSING OUT, TEMPERATURE CONTROL IN FACE, SWOLLEN GLANDS FOR WHOLE MONTH, STIFF NECK, SHAKY HANDS, NAUSEA. SWOLLEN GLANDS IN NECK AND SOAR THROAT LASTING STILL. PLEASE HELP.
