I'm really worried and need some advice. I've been dealing with strep throat for about a week and a half, and my right tonsil is super swollen. I've also been getting pain in my ear. Last Thursday, they said I had a sinus infection, but they didn't check my throat for strep back then. I just started taking amoxicillin today, two doses so far, but after the first one, I took a nap and woke up with this chest pain on the upper right side when I breathe. Is this normal or something I should be concerned about?

it might be due to gastritis which is a side effect of Amoxicillin.

I'm really concerned about why she's been having a fever every morning. She did have a SGPT test, and there was some infection found, but after a full month of treatment, she got better. Now the fever is back, and we did all the checkups, but the doctor still can't pinpoint the issue. Could it be something we missed? What should we do next?

Kindly see her white blood cell count. Also look after for other symptoms and treat accordingly
