i have had a sore throat since aug
16,2005. There have been a few days
during this time that it has not been
sore, but not many. I have seen two
family doctors and my allergy doctor.
They have tested me for strep and mono;
always negative.
I fell so bad. I can hardly talk most of
the time. My voice is very rough
and husky sounding since this has come on
me.
I take zyrtec, mold and pollen drops, a
multi vitamin, and a joint care
supplement, tylenol sore throat,
daily...Sometimes, I gargle with
kenalog/lidocaine/diphen.
Maybe this isn't a cold/flu or allergy
problem. What other test should i
ask my doctor to do?
I am married, four children still at home,
three young grandchildren live
close; I need to feel good to care of my
family.
Thank you so much.
Sincerely, jaylean williams bartlesville,
ok

Can it be gerd? Gastroesophageal reflux
disease? That's the reason I got a sore
throat for a loooooong time. Do you
sometimes taste sourness in your mouth?
If you do... It could very well be this
disease. I hope I helped. Anyway...
Best of luck to you! =)

Well the best thing I can tell for you is
stop taking so many medicines and pills.
Start gargeling your mouth with warm salt
water ( 1. You put 1/4 of salt in your
cup 2. Then put lukewarm water in it 3.
Stir the water and salt and gargle until
you feel and difference coming up and out
of your mouth like spit and bugers.) and
drink hot tea with no sugar in it.
Especially sugar if anything had the 3 s's
in it do not take it like sugar,
seasoning, and salt the one that goes on
meat.
