    Prescribed antibiotics right after water fast

    Hey everyone, bit of a dilemma on my hands.

    Had a week off work, so I took the opportunity to do my first ever water-only fast. Completed 8 days.

    On day 6, I developed a gradually worsening sore throat, but I decided to finish the fast anyway.

    Well, an hour ago it was diagnosed as strep throat, and the doctor prescribed Penicillin.

    Shitty timing to say the least, as I finished this cleanse today and just began refeeding.

    I’m on the fence about starting the antibiotics, but slightly leaning towards taking them. As much as I dislike pills, apparently with untreated strep there’s a small, but still appreciable risk for severe complications.

    Any tips on how to proceed? I’m hoping there’s a way to mitigate some of the damage from antibiotics, if I do end up going that route. (Especially concerned w/ gut).

    Thanks in advance.
