HI everyone!
Happy almost summer! I unforunately found out this week that i have strep throat. I am allergic to a certain antibiotic that starts with A, i don't know the full name, and thus was put on pennicilum of some kind. My friend and i were talking today and she think that will cancel out my birth control, ortho tri cyclen lo that i am taking, and i have an important formal event with my boyfriend next friday so i really need to know! Can you please help me? I really really appreciate it. Thanks, hope to hear from you soon :)
