The throat pain can be mitigated by garggling with either salt water or apple cider vinegar.

That was the only thing that gave me some relief, I started crying a couple of times because it hurted so bad. I never felt anything like it, not when it comes to such a "small" thing like a soar throat. I don't get sick alot, maybe once a year, and I almost never get knocked out in this way.

However. Yesterday and today I have begun to feel alot better. Last night I slept all through the night and I've even been able to eat! I just finished off a very soft yoga session, and I can feel the energy returning.

Now... It's time to get ready for work!
