Thank you. It's day three and it's still sore but not as bad as it was. I only hurts when I swallow. Don't you love it when the doctor tells you it might cause a "little discomfort" and it ends up being painful? The nurse says, "You'll feel a pinch" and then sticks a straw into your vein.

That's funny!......Not really, but how about when the nurse misses on the way in with that straw? Then instead of pulling out, she moves the syringe around in wide circles with some disappointment (not for your pain) but for missing the target. Hope your throat feels better soon. If I were a doctor I wold prescribe Ricola sugar free cough drops.
