Well, after scrounging up the money to pay for a doctor's visit and some meds for my throat, a 5 day period of antibiotics and much gargling, drinking tons of tea and taking a bajillion vitamins, I am STILL having throat problems.
In fact, now the symptoms have worsened to include blisters in the back of my throat, and large quantities of them.
From past experience with the blisters, they are caused by a virus and therefore unaffected by drugs of any sort, so really right now I can choose to either wait it out, or go back to the doctor and see what he says about the issue.
Problem is, I don't have insurance, and a tonsillectomy costs upwards of $4,000. I'm moving in two months, have tuition and bills to pay, and am currently unemployed -- a tonsillectomy spells bankruptcy for me, therefore eliminating my credit score and pretty much making it impossible for me to move at all.
So, what I'm asking for is all the healing energy anyone can spare, to help me kick this throat thing and ward off the looming tonsillectomy monster!
Either that, or someone could help me win the lottery. That'd work, too. :hahugh:
