hey look at that! another question from Emma!

OK. My son was at the Dr Friday due to sore throat and bronchitis. Sore throat ended up being strep... everything was great today until 5 pm when my throat started hurting.... now its killing me. I have white spots so I'm sure my son gave it to me... my prob is my Dr isn't in tomorrow. What do I do? My insurance won't cover an er trip unless its pregnancy related... will I be OK to wait til Thursday?
