What Causes Chills Along With Body Ache, Sore Throat And Sinusitis?

This started a week ago with cold chills & body aches. Then sore throat & sinus congestion. Went to doctor on Sunday... dx common cold w/flu like symptoms. said lungs clear, no fever. gave over the counter cough syrup and advised advil for pain. Tuesday, still no better. back to doctor. same thing. she advised to do nasal saline rinse every 4 hours, Robitussin DM pills, and coughing pills, Benzonatate. Thursday, still no better so back to doctor. low grade fever, sinus mucus green-tinted, lungs still clear. prescribed anti-biotic Amox-Clav 875-125 mg tablet twice per day. Still continuing with the nasal rinse, advil, and pills for cough. I still don t feel like I am getting any better & I am totally out of commission...tired, weak for an entire week. Feeling like something is not quite right.
