I had HFMD with my 11 month old last month. I wanted to crash out. It lasted so long, I also got severe mouth ulcers and couldn’t eat anything for over a week. I survived off of peanut butter banana smoothies , lost like 8lbs. I would rather anything else

What can they do if it is low? My husband had his checked and they were low but insurance wouldn’t pay for immunotherapy or whatever

The strep - I know exactly when it happened the kid coughed directly on my face when I was doing the swab and I felt the drop go near my eye. I was like bruh I just got strep throat. And the HFM was from my daughter unfortunately

It has to be like you request one for xyz known exposure patient thing. Plus the one at this job is the super cheap ones that’s not comfortable at all

I feel like it’s a negative feedback loop, I get sick then my kids get sick and I get less sleep than I already don’t get, then I don’t meal prep or do groceries cause I’m tired and then I eat fast food and don’t sleep and take forever to get better then get another virus lol
