Hi Concertgoer Cool

What are you concerned about? If your sore throat isn't getting better, please go and see a doctor.

Stopping smoking was a great move Big Grin .

Best wishes :coffee:

my concern, i belong to an HMO, and they ahave a way of making me FEEL silly when i go. I know I should not feel this way about someone when I need to talk to them about my health but i can't help it -- they always make me feel like I shouldn't have come in and wasted their time (even if I pay for it and it is my health) Sad but true. Thanks, I guess I should have my throat looked at by someone else other than me Smiler
