It's flaking pretty bad but I decided today, after having sat indoors suffering hugely since Monday, to get meself down the Doctors and get some pencillin. Thing is you see, I wanted to fight it off myself, but my tonsils r huge ordinarily (take up most of the back of my throat) so you can imagine the pain when they're infected. They close my throat totally. So I'm on antibugs for the nxt 10 days, plus have got 400mg of Ibruprofen and 400mg of paracetemol to take every hour nad a huge tube of Dovobet if worst come to worst!!  ::)

Hi Dani,
you really should go for some antibiotics. Nobody knows excactly why some kind of bakteria are guilty for flaring up the P and some others not, but waiting until they do is risky.

And, of course, you must not  take original penicillin but other kinds of antibiotic, because especially penicillin is one of the drugs provoking the P too.

And, if you often have problems with your tonsils, you have to get rid of them, because resisting inflammtions inside your body can provoke P too, independend of the kind of bacteria.

And, the maximum dose rate of ibuprofene is about 2000mg/day for a standard patient (75 kgs), so be careful. Taking more won't help more.

Uuups, might it be that I was now such a know-it-all engineer/man annoying a women that knows that all and only searched for some comfort ?
That would be very characteristic for the relationship between men and women ;D

Why can't life be a little bit easier for us all? ???
