<p>AUGHH! Now my first year D has had the very bad sore throat for over a week. The college clinic said it was just “post nasal drip”. Did not test for strep. This is highly unusual for this child, usually my energizer bunny kiddo. We suspect she had mono a few years ago, but if so it was an extremely mild case (the blood tests indicated it might have been tale end, but a bit inconclusive).</p>
<p>Of course she’s across the country. I’ve already looked up local doctors for her to follow up with if the college clinic doesn’t seem “helpful” today. She’s continuing to maintain a pretty intense schedule (off season athlete, but there really is no off season) but she is going to crash and burn if she doesn’t start feeling better very soon.</p>
