Went to the doctor sunday because i couldn't swallow things very well. They did a blood test and a throat swab. The swab came back negative so that means I don't have strep... Since it's so early on we really don't know what it is, but the doctor believes it to be mono so on friday we're going back to urgent care and having a mono spot test done. This is complete hell... I can't breathe through my nose, swallowing burns like fire, and yes there are white spots on my tonsils... I have checked. I've already had symptoms for a week now, so hopefully my throat will start getting better soon :/
