If its strep you will have white puss build up on the back of your throat or mouth. Its the white bloid cells dying trying to fight the infection. Both are highly contagious and can be spread through shated utensils, food,drinks, and kissing. I have heard of mono as being called the kissing disease.

Are you able to hold fluids down? Try drinking some chicken or beef broth so you can get some nutrients and take a couple tylenol to help with the sore throat. Make sure you keep drinking water even if you throw it up because you don't want to add dehydration into the mix. If you still feel crappy in the morning go get checked but if you start feeling even.worse it might be a good idea to go to an urgent care clinic or the er. Hope you feel better soon!

I would go to the doctors ASAP! Because if its mono, you do NOT want to mess with that while your pregnant lol. Idk how to tell the difference but all I know is that when I had mono, I felt like I was dying! I had a fever for 2 weeks straight and that's when I knew something was wrong. And my lymph nodes were so swollen that you could see them popping out of my neck! It's a horrible sickness
