Years ago, I caught some super strain of strep from DFK. It finally went away after 3 courses of antibiotics. That was a painful month. The strep was so bad I couldn't sleep. Even swallowing my own spit or drinking just water, it felt like I was swallowing fucking concrete bricks. Now, is strep as STD? No, but that's simply from kissing a provider who's probably kissed hundreds of mongers in 1 week.
