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?

I'm feeling quite uneasy tonight. It's like I've got chills and I'm shivering. It feels like a fever, but I don't actually have one. There's also some irritation in my throat and I just feel really weak overall. What could be going on and what should I do?

-It sounds like you're experiencing early symptoms of a viral infection or flu-like illness. Keep yourself warm, drink plenty of fluids (warm water or herbal teas), and rest well. If your throat irritation worsens, try saltwater gargles or lozenges. Monit
