Already been seen?: Have you already been seen? Is there a culture pending? In interiim, use saline spray for your nose, and use separate hand towels and glasses to prevent spread of infection. Drink plenty of fluids, and try gargling your throat with warm salt water or Chloroseptic gargle and spray. Feel better.
