Thanks, plum and animaldoc for your quick answers!

Got home from work yesterday with just the beginnings of the infection - hubby had the tub already filled with hot, hot water. I stayed in there as long as I could, then he poured me into bed. I slept for most of the night (with the exception of getting up to watch the Red Wings play ).

I've got a lot of meetings at work today and am trying not to talk too much (kinda hard ) to aggravate my throat. Will probably do a replay on the tub after work.
