I'm sorry I should have explained that the handful of pills taken was perscription meds that I take everyday....for some reason yesterday was a little different.. don't know why the only thing different was that I took an anti-biotic because I had a dental appointment. my throat has been hurting ever since I took all the pills at once, been taking semon juice and honey and eating a soft diet....should I be doing anything else??

Hello
Well, I am sorry about that. Its just that cell phones are not allowed in the operation theatre so there is no way I can read my follow ups. Please do get back to me. I personally recommend betadine gargling, it helps.
My patient is doing well.
Thank you so much for understanding, patients like you are delightful and make me happy.
