I need some info gals. And guys, if there are any these days
I posted around a week ago... on I believe Jan 13 my boyfriends bro got sick (v). I live with Chris and his family, by the way. Chris and I thought it was a stomach bug right away so we packed my things and I went to stay with my parents for a week. His brother had a mild fever when he V* but he was done and better by noon the same day, and outside running around like normal the next day. He is 16, for reference. Anyway, I stayed away for a week but Ive still been wary of using the same dishes, going downstairs out of my room, etc. we also share a bathroom with him unfortunately but hes mostly used the one downstairs so its okay. Anyway, its obviously been a week or two since he did the deed.. but hes had a cough all this time, and yesterday he had a sore throat and now its so bad it hurts for him to swallow. His mom thinks he has strep throat, so hes going to the doctor today but he is home sick again, and I am not positive but I think there may have been V* again, I saw the bathroom was open with the light on so... that sounds to me like its just waiting for him to do it again. Really scary for me but Im trying to just GET OVER IT and I got myself my breakfast anyway and even walked past the bathroom (a big feat if someone was ill in it). Anyway I want to know, guys, do you know of anyone or kids who have V* when they have strep throat? He isnt really a kid, he is 16, but still. I just want to know because I think the V* earlier in the month may have been from the strep throat and I could calm down a bit, but he only had a cough at that point, no sore throat that I know of.
I know that when I was a kid, I had strep and I did V* once from it but I was only around 5 years old and it wasnt that bad, I just really felt yucky.
Info appreciated here!
Also Im going to make a separate thread about my experience w/strep and "PANDAS".
