Yeah i know going to the doctor would be the best choice, but it's 11:39 PM.
So today i've had
-Extremely painful soar throat
-103 degree Temp
-Really REALLY bad stomach ache (i havent been able to eat anything)
-Head ache, etc.
And i just went into my closet, which has a bright light, and a big mirror.
So i looked in my throat, and theres big white marks ALL over in my throat and on my tonsils and stuff.
I thought maybe they were like cold soars, in my throat, but some are long and weird shaped, and that would be a crazy coincidence that i got a shitload of cold soars in my throat at the same time as getting a temperature, and all that other stuff.
Are these most likely cold soars? Or could i have a tonsil infection?? or does anybody have any knowlege in this field?
-I really feel shitty and dont feel like putting up with bullshit, so please dont spam up this thread.
thanks guys |

It's probably all the drugs you do?
Edit: Ok, I could sit here telling you the numerous things it could be, but all of them would require you to go to the doctor anyway. Plus, I can't examine you from the Internet... so post some pictures if you really want my diagnosis.

Read my edit. You'd really have to post pictures. It could be anything from a yeast infection to .. well, a lot.
And it'll probably get worse and very, very gross. Go to the doctor tomorrow.

Self diagnosis is almost never right.
1) Go to bed.
2) Wake up.
3) Go to doctor and get swab'd.
4) ????
5) PROFIT!!! |
