hi, im worried about whats going on with me.
a few weeks back i was told i have a throat infection, was treated for that but it never went away.
i went back to the doctors a few days later and was told it was nothing.
i went to the dentist and he said its a fungal infection that needed treating, i went to the doctors again, i told her what the dentist said, she said it was nothing and didnt give me any medicine.
i went to another doctor 4 days ago and he told me my lymph nodes were infected and gave me some strong medicine that was ment to help.
i have now finished that medicine and its feeling worse then ever i have not only one lump in my neck but i have 3 or 4 and they are big and painful.
im having so much trouble swallowing, my mouth feels dry, i have a horrible headache thats lasted for over a week, i feel sick to the stomach, i have pains in my back, im tired all the time and i also get white tongue, i used a tongue scraper and that gets rid of the white tongue but it always comes back :-(
i dont know whats happening too me but its horrible!
can anyone help?

Sounds to me like a bad case of strep throat, but your dentist also can be right about it being a fungal infection. Strep throat almost always causes swelling of the lymph glands and is very painful, but I think that medicine doctor gave you was some sort of antibiotic. Antibiotics are usually effective in dealing with strep throat which is caused by bacteria, but they wouldn’t be at all effective if you had fungal infection. White tongue you have is common for both strep and fungal infection. Gargling some salt water will help you temporarily with throat pain and mouth, but only way to get rid of this is to go again to see the doctors. They will also see that medicine they gave you didn’t work and hopefully act little differently.
