I have gotten variations of this four times this year.
Extremely sore throat, swollen right gland, sore muscles, headache... no nausea no vomiting.
Last time it felt like glass at the bottom of my throat.
This time I have a very high fever for me, 103 F. That's a new symptom.
I have no health care, and the free clinic is full of people who are too busy to really help me out.
I did the saltwater gargle thing a while ago and blood came out, that's also a new symptom.
Oh and I have been really hot then really cold!
