What is the best way to soothe strep throat other than drinking?

February 5th, 2023

I have been fighting a systemic fungal infection for about 5 months. I have tried antifungals like diflucan and ketoconazole, which help while I'm on them but the infection returns after I stop. I also experience GI symptoms and headaches, especially when the infection affects my sinuses. I have tried vitamins, dietary changes, and probiotics, but the issue persists. What could be causing this recurring infection and what further steps should I take?

I have a fever and recently released from the hospital after 8 days due to pneumonia, sepsis, and kidney failure. I have lesions on my lower right lung lobe. I need help as I feel like I'm going to die, and the ER nearby won't see me. I'm not ready to die. I was sick a lot from birth to about 25 with pneumonia but never diagnosed until 19 when it was called chronic bronchial pneumonia. I was allergic to penicillin and erythromicin, but levofloxacin seemed to cure the problem. However, after being pneumonia-free for 10 years, it came back without usual warnings or symptoms, and I'm waiting to die. I'm only 46.

I had a Panda Express meal with fried ginger beef two weeks ago, which caused severe digestive issues the next morning. Since then, I've experienced increased indigestion, flushed cheeks, and purging after eating certain meals. For the past two days, I've been easily out of breath, have ringing in my ears, and have had to sit down to avoid fainting after exertion. I had a thorough physical in October and was deemed healthy, but I'm concerned about these recent symptoms. Should I go to the emergency room, or is there another course of action I should take?
