    Hi, welcome to Empty Closets!

    If you have a sore throat you should go to the doctor, and they will swab your throat and see if it is strep.

    This is the only way I know of to find out if it's strep. If it is, they will give you antibiotics. If they give you antibiotics, you should take the full course prescribed, even if you start feeling better sooner.

    If you suspect strep, get it checked right away. You must as stated earlier complete the antibiotics given. If strep is left unchecked it can damage the valves in your heart. I had a friend that had that complication. I would check in with your Dr. right away. June
