Sounds like strept throat

search ebola

Sounds like you have the flu.

Could be bronchitis or pneumonia or the flu. GO TO THE DOCTOR!

could be flu or the big thing

You have the flu

Sounds exactly like a sinus infection. I had one not too long ago, and they're NASTY.
The only way to remedy it is to get a perscription from a doctor. Tastes nasty, but it helps.
It's going around, by the way. It's extremely contagious.

Tympanitis. - I am 95% sure about that.

(inflammation of the middle ear)

- and its an ear infection, but if you ask "then why do I have a fever?" - well that is because the "Tympanitis" is related to ears - means its around nose area. So it is a typical type of cold but a complex one, ear infection. Visit a doctor as soon as possible. xoxo be better soon. =) Hope

There is a serious illness going around that includes all your symptoms (everyone at my work has gotten it) and they say that they cant believe how hard it hit them and the toll it has taken on them...BUT...the fever part is different....a fever in an adult usually means signs of infection..You should see a doctor...hope you feel better soon

I agree, bronchitis or pneumonia of flu.

It sounds like you have a very bad cold, the only way to find out if you have a strep throat is to have a swab of your throat by a doctor or a nurse. Take tylinol and see if that reduces your fever. I would go and have the test for your throat. Being sick is no fun. The quicker you find out what is wrong the sooner you can treat it and feel better. Good luck, I hope you feel better soon.

Strong flu bug that has gone into slight nasal infection resulting in possible ear infection. Hope ya don't get the 2-7 day deafness in that ear. Looks like you'll be fine in about 3 more days.

It sounds like either a cold, the flu, or mono. Either way, the best thing you can do for it is drink a lot, rest as much as possible and take some vitamin C.

Regarding the gagging after a cough - Your uvula might be somewhat swollen as a result of the sore throat and/or caughing. Try eating or drinking something cold and seeing if it helps.

Putting a humidifier in your room might help with the cough and congestion. Feel better soon!

Its a sign of Death
