Unknown Etiology
My sore throat returned two days after the antibiotic was all taken. I decided I probably had a virus and treated myself with salt water (gargles) and pain meds. Finally, the pain became so severe, I had to seek medical help again.
My doctor agrees I have a terribly sore throat but is unsure of the cause (etiology) so gave me more antibiotic and also is treating for heartburn, saying acid reflux may be causing the lesions in my throat.
Whatever the cause, the pain is getting out of hand and has extended to my right ear. I surely doubt acid reflux causes ear aches!
This is truly getting old! I am praying for healing and for patience... and asking you to pray, too.

My dear friend,
I truly almost called you today. That is how heavily you are on my mind. However, due to extreme fatigue from not sleeping the last week because our boy has croup and then not sleeping last night because he went to the ER after waking up at midnight screaming with an ear ache, I decided I might not be able to carry on a reasonable conversation. Thankfully, the Lord does not need the same level of coherency to understand me, so please know I will be lifting you to Him in prayer. I have tomato basil soup in the freezer. I think I can send it overnight if you need me to. :-)
Love you, dear!
Jerri
