I have strep throat so I havent really given my rats much play time so they are looking at me through the bars all playful yet sad at the same time. But I dont want them getting sick so I am holding back to just closet time while im cleaning there cage.

 

[Matt]

oh yeah, I rather get a shot (Which I absolutly HATE needles!) over strep Anytime. Not even a shot, I rather have a broken body part then strep. I just cant stand the pain I guess.


(my doctor has wanted to cut out my tonsales for years because they are big. and when I get sick they are huge so it is harder to breathe.)

Rats don't catch strep throat, they can catch strep pneumonia. You can take them out,but I still wouldn't advise kissing them :roll:

 

[Sweetpea]

What's the point of taking them out if you can't kiss them?

 

[Forensic]

You can kiss them. Just not on the lips. :lol:

 

[Matt]

lol, there getting some free roam time but I did warn them about kiss's...lol...

 

[Bren]

Hope you're feeling better soon

 

[Kimmiekins]

Aww, feel better soon, Matt! Strep throat is the pits... I can handle a lot of other things, but a sore throat? Forget it - whine city, and I hate every minute of it.

 

[Matt]

thanks. Sore throats are the worst. And on top of a sore throat I also got a
stuffed up head and constant headaches because of that.

I am however eatin Chewable vitamin Cs like they are candy,
slurping down the day-quil(sp?) and ny-quil(sp?)...lol...
Then I am going through lots of numbing spray, and numbing gargle stuff.

It took me about 10 minutes to totaly lube up my throat last night...lol...


So yeah, Last night felt good. :lol:

Remember, you can take too much vitamin C. After a while it ceases to be effective.

Urgh, strep throat is no fun (thankfully I've never had it, but my sister has). When it comes to being sick a sore throat is the one thing I just can't stand. Hope you feel better soon.

 

[Matt]

Yeah I have slowed down on the vitamin C. I havent even had any today,
but a I had a handful yesterday...lol...
