Here we go again!

Up until January 2008, I hadn't had strep throat since I was 12. I got it in January, again in May. And, I think it's back again. The rapid test they gave me came back positive. It turns out that since I've had it so recently, the rapid test gives false positives this close to having had it. So, I won't find out until morning whether I have it again. I've done everything right, including replacing my toothbrush. Google research tonight taught me that someone can have strep and show no symptoms whatsoever. One of my boys can carry it, and not show symptoms, but infect me. If I'm positive again, we might all be tested. It's been a challenging month to say the least.
