"Upper respiratory infection " help
Dec 26 I started to feel a little sick and did not seek medical attention until a week later when I noticed I'd been running a consistent fever. went to a clinic and without a swab test was diagnosed with step throat due to red bumps on the back of my tongue sent home with amoxicillin. 5 days later I still had bumps, fever, fatigue but no sore throat or cold like symptoms. back to the doctor and diagnosed with upper respiratory infection. 12 days later symptoms returned.
