What do you do when you're hungry, but dread the next time something goes down your throat?

What do you do when you're too tired to stay awake, yet you can't fall asleep?

These questions and more are driving me up the wall right now. I have strep throat, and it is very very annoying. I can't sleep, can't eat, and anytime I drink anything, it is extremely painful. Add to that, I don't think the pills that the doctor gave me are actually going down my throat.

Ugh, I just wish I could sleep and forget all of this!
