Apparently I have acute tonsilitis.

Definite sympathy. Been there myself, and it sucks.

Are there white spots? That's usually a giveaway of tonsillitis.

I've emailed the house list, but I'm posting this here in case you don't check your Podmail before this evening. I will be going shopping later, so tell me if you and Dave need any more food or painkillers.

I thought you didn't have tonsils anymore?

*many hugs of hugness*

That's what I was told... the guy thismorning was impressed by how massive they are right now though. When they're normally undetectable. So... would've been nice to get anti-inflamatories, maybe?

D:
You got penicillin, right? That's what the Official Guidelines say (in a related note - mum sends sympathy also), and it's better than anti-inflamatories for infection rather than histamine.
They should see off the infection. I wonder if you've kind of had this for a while, but it didn't actually flare up fully until now/weekend, given that you've been feeling crappy for a while? Let's hope the synthetic fungus-secretion will nobble all that too! :)

Tonsilitis is viral as often as it is bacterial so penicillin wouldn't necessarily do any good - antibiotics only treat bacterial infections. You have my sincere sympathy, though, as I had tonsillitis myself a couple of weeks ago and it was horrible. Get well soon.

Ugh. Sore throats and anything that causes them are the worst. Take care, and get well soon!

I hope you feel a lot better soon. I attempted to visit you in work today, but I'm assuming you weren't there given the rather nasty tonsils.
Get well soon:)

Correct. I left at lunch on tuesday and I'm not going back 'til next week. Congrats on the new home!
