Apparently, there was a bug going around or something, and I've found myself with strep throat. x-x
I was wondering if there was a way to deal with it, especially with the swallowing? I can barely eat or drink any food, which is going to cause a case of cabin fever if I don't figure something out soon. DX

Your best bet is always consulting a physician when you have trouble eating and drinking. You may need meds to help it go away.
Sore throats are often soothed with salt water gargling, warm milk with honey, herbal tea with honey and cold drinks or treats like ice cream, popsicles and ice cubes. None of them make it go away though, they only temporarily take the edge off.
Just to make sure, go see a doctor! Good luck!

A doctor always is your best bet as Sanne said. Home Remedies will just sooth it for a bit.

I have a doctor's appointment later today, but I'm going to try the warm milk with honey for now. (It actually sounds a bit tasty. 
) Thank you!

Herbal tea with honey and lemon, or even just hot water with honey and lemon, can do wonders!
