Hi all,
I've been in ketosis for about a week. The past few days I've had a sore throat. I don't think I'm coming down with anything and I've had it before with keto.

I think I'm keeping up on electrolytes. I also have about the juice of one lemon in my water during the day.

Any other thoughts on why I have it and how to get rid of it?

    Do you have the lemon water when you are not keto? Maybe the lemon is too acidic for your mucous membranes (n=1 some people are more sensitive to things like that)? Try plain water for a week or add different things to it like cucumber slices and mint that aren't acidic. See if it makes a difference.
