So last Sunday I noticed a sore spot on the right side of my throat. It was noticeable but nothing major, felt like a canker sore. On Monday the entire right side was mildly painful and I figured it was a typical sore throat that would run it's course. It wasn't until last night that it became so painful I literally couldn't stand it.

Went to urgent care this morning and was diagnosed with strep and scarlet fever. Rosy cheeks and red splotches all over.

I'm on antibiotics now and already am feeling better, but I figured I'd throw out a PSA: If your throat hurts don't be like me and ignore it thinking it'll run it's course.
