99% sure I have strep

I don't think it's all that contagious. C has had it several times and we never catch it from him.

It's not ER worthy for her unless she's in extreme pain. When C has it, symptoms are a fairly high fever (102-103), tons of drooling, not wanting to eat, general assholery. He's usually much better after 12-24 hours on antibiotics.

Dh was diagnosed wed. So far no one else has got it. I'll feel safe in a few more days.

I'm so sorry. No advice but sending healthy thoughts to your house.

Dd #1 got it with no fever symptoms only detected during a well visit. So far we haven't got it. Though I do feel a cold coming.

FWIW, DS's pedi told me strep is MUCH more painful for adults than it is for kids. So it's not the end of the world if you wait a few.
