For those who don't know, I get strep throat fairly often.
As in "3 or 4 times a year" often.
Well after having strep in October, November, January and February,
I decided enough was enough and scheduled a tonsillectomy.
To say I was over being sick every month is an understatement.
Funniest little story:
In February, I was heading to work one night stressing out about when I would have time to get my tonsils out since I had so much due, and to do, in this final semester. I distinctly remember calling my mom and telling her, "I might just have to wait until the summer, because I don't have time to take off."
Well, when I got off work in the morning, my throat was on fire and since it was Saturday, my only option was to head to the ER.
Strep throat.
I feel as though God literally laughed at me and said "oh you thought you would wait, huh?"
Needless to say, my surgery date is now less than 2 weeks away on April 6th.
To be honest, I'm not sure who (my mother or I) is more excited for the surgery because she's gotten more pictures of the back of my throat than I care to admit.
You would think I could stay healthy until then, but guess what I got this week.
Strep *insert side eye*
It's as if my tonsils know they're leaving and decided to throw a goodbye party, which BY THE WAY is so not cool.
Thankfully the pain is over and the real pain will began once I wake up after surgery.
Fingers crossed that I'll never have strep again.
