Don't give up hope, join the support group on Facebook, and stay focused on recovery!!! The battle has just begun and the connection I have with the support group now I wish I had sooner.

My biggest advice for someone with Lemierres syndrome is to question everything and if you have the energy, keep a journal, or have someone keep a journal for you. The emotional trauma involved in the experience of having Lemierres syndrome, tends to make you forget everything that happened while in the hospital, and you will want to remember at some point.
Otherwise, rest and recover.
