Suggest Treatment For Dry Cough, Runny Nose And Excessive Sweating

I have a dry cough,runny nose and get the sweats periodically throughout the day.past 2 days had a slight fever but no fever today. My glands were swollen and I am taking an old script of ceftin. Started taking Tylenol cold and flu.....just feel lousy going into day 4 of this. Also got a whopping cough shot Tuesday,could it be a result of that? Do I have the flu?

Dear; thanks for using our service.It looks that you have an infection that is causing the fever ,cough and runny nose. It is important to take active script because you might be taking an antibiotic that is old and won't work the way it should. The whopping cough vaccine can give you a low graded fever but not the swollen glands, which goes more with a bacterial infection.I don't think that is flu because that will give diarrhea too. I recommend you to see your primary doctor for a checkup and new antibiotics.
I hope that my advise has been helpful
