Question : Since Saturday I have had fever - 101.6 - chills, sore glands in neck on either side of my throat and earache and nausea. I also feel so awful I have not felt like getting out of the house to go to the doctor. Am better today - fever low grade, earache better. What was wrong with me?

Brief Answer:
Probably caused by a viral infection of the upper airways!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and that you so much of this query.

I am so sorry to hear about these symptoms that you suffered. I have reviewed the information filly and it is suggestive of an infection of the upper respiratory tract caused by a virus. With fever dropping, there is no needful further specific medical attention. Continue with tylenol for fever and pains control and all would be okay within 7-10days. In addition, healthy diet and regular exercise would be very helpful in the recovery process.

I hope that this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our service and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
