Hi,
if these lab tests r already done than no need to repeat CBC with differential, ESR, ECG, waters view, spirometry. If cause is not found through them then EEG can be done. If it is tonsils, tonsillectomy [if indication is there] can help, ENT surgeon is suggested to be seen.
Take soft foods [dahlia, crushed fruits and vegetables, juices, salads, yogurt, lot of water, and diet as you are taking normally if not a problem]. You can try natural healing programme [sahaj samadhi art of living workshop]. These can help to overcome symptoms naturally [will relieve tension and stress due it]. Proper oral hygiene is recommended [Betadine gargles] to be done.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
