Ive been sick for a week now. Ive had the usual cold. (stuffy nose,cough,headache,sore throat) And its on and off. Ill feel fine at one moment then i have a headache and im in a cold sweat. I was freezing all day last saturday, and it was 70 outside. I was so tired and it hurt to walk. I tried sleeping but that did no good. Ive been hot all the time now and today i discovered a lump in my throat. I think it may be a swollen lymph or something. Im not really sure what it is though. But i've been so fatigued. Online Symptoms keep saying its like mononucliosis or something but i highly doubt it.
it just wont go away! and this lump is annoying.

It sounds like it could be a nasty case of influenza-- as Heather said, to the doctor with ye, for a proper diagnosis, and treatment if you need it.

That sucks, a lot. Just take it easy for the next couple of weeks, get plenty of rest and stay hydrated. I'm lucky to have skipped mono, but from what I've heard, it's no fun at all!
