So about 3 weeks ago i had strep throat with flared tonsils, fever,
swollen lymph nodes, etc. I was given an antibiotic (amoxicillan) that
seemed to do the trick and my strep cleared up. Now about a week later
after my strep cleared up my tonsils became swollen again and lymph
nodes under jaw are inflamed. There is no pain in my throat just feels
closed off a bit. Went to doctor again and throat culture was
negative, they sent me off saying its a virus and to give it time. Im
experiencing some headaches, nausea, swollen tonsils, swollen lymph
nodes currently. They had done a cbc blood test back when i had the
strep and that was normal. They also did a mono test. What im worried
about is cancer. Ive read about it and my symptoms seem to fit under
it. On top of this im diagnosed with generalized anxiety so that makes
everything a bit harder. Would my cbc have shown issues pertaining to
cancer from 3 weeks ago? Is saying its a virus proper diagnosis? Do i
just need to give it time? Thanks all for taking time to ready my
novel if you made it this far.
