I'm looking forward to a big dose of I told ya so! Really hoping for that. :D
I'm going to go the dentist first, since I have issues in that region and they can check for anything wrong there.
If that all goes well (I think it will) and I'm still not feeling right, I'm going to go ER the week after. It takes forever to get an appointment with my doctor, constantly having to call the office etc. and if she did find anything troubling I bet she'd just send me to the hospital anyway? Not sure, might ring our version of 111 up and see if they've got any advice on my next move. :yesyes:

Not sure if I can get fast tracked with the ENT either. Might just be a case of having to wait no matter what.
Re: 4 weeks of swollen tonsils + Flu-like symptoms too.
Every time I've eaten today it seems like my food is taking forever to go down.
That plus the reflux has me thinking Esophagus again. I've also got some tenderness in my upper abdomen if I press (gently) on it.
Might go hospital again tomorrow, because this is driving me nuts. :weep:

You're probably right! I'm still getting the chills, weakness, drunkenness, and night sweats though, if I could get rid of those feelings I might start believing there isn't something sinister attacking my body.
If the first 2 X rays I had done were barium ones, I think this whole episode would be behind me already. But maybe not... :roflmao:
Definitely going mad, that's for sure! I mean that in jest too, trying to at least keep my sense of humor up. :D
I just read that someone's OC/EC (whichever way you want to spell it) was spotted via a blood test showing their liver was out of whack, but mine is fine according to my blood tests.
Re: 4 weeks of swollen tonsils + Flu-like symptoms too.
Don't think I had the sweats last night! That's more nights without them than with this week I think. :D They seem to be getting more infrequent.
I felt super tired this morning though, didn't want to get out of bed. I also felt a little chilly/panicky when I woke, but not as bad as previous days.
The chilly/chills feeling is still with me again today, but it's hardly warm outside...
Didn't go hospital, and don't plan on doing so yet. I've also arranged a hearing test to check my ears out, the one that's plugged has got me worrying about something more sinister going on. Probably just got some water trapped in it though. :doh:

I'm pretty sure some of my lymph nodes are fusing, surely that can't be good?

Maybe they're just tendons near where I'm finding nodes though... No idea, made myself panic again.

^ I think I've spotted a pattern. I seem to go into panic/anxiety mode in the afternoon.
Re: 4 weeks of swollen tonsils + Flu-like symptoms too.
Quick update via mobile...
Felt so tired today that I ended up spending 12 hours in bed.
Hair looked wet, so I assume I was sweating again [emoji29]
Got that smelly phlegm from my throat again too.
Still really not feeling right, weak fatigued etc too.

Re: 4 weeks of swollen tonsils + Flu-like symptoms too.
Decided to try doing some yard work to try and "build my strength up", now I feel weak as hell.
Feel tired again too, after 12 hour in bed WTF?
Re: 4 weeks of swollen tonsils + Flu-like symptoms too.
So 12 hours in bed, plus an hour and half nap. [emoji55]
I can't seem to put any weight on either, despite trying to eat more.
