strep

I am 14 weeks pregnant. I went to  my GP on 12/18 with a 100  low fever and a sore throat. Had a strep test done and it was positive. Got prescribed amoxicillin which I started right away. I am very nauseous and throw up a lot because of the pregnancy. I took the antibiotics for 5 days but then stopped because they made me even more nauseous. Got my sore throat back on 12/25 but this time it hurts even more. I don't really have a fever (99.7).  Can I try to go back on the antibiotics or can I let this run its course ?

Hard one. I wouldn't take anything when I was pregnant. If you are feeling better I'd almost say let it run it's course. There is an herb, Astragalus.  Call your OB/GYN and ask if you can take that herb. It's excellent for healing when sick.  Always talk to your doctors before doing anything.  Get a lot of rest, gargle.  I gargle with tea tree oil, it's excellent for a sore throat.
