I have a fever i believe(no thermo) and i am really exhausted. when i went to the doctor not only were my tonsils swollen but there was yellowish white pustuls on them and the doctor told me that it would go away on ts own but did a strep throat test and when it came up negative perscribed me anti biotics anyways for strep. i didnt ahve any of the syptoms i have now. ansd i have practiccally all of them. its been about a month and im haveing really bad headaches and all my muscles are sore. and im very lathargic.
