flu or something else??

I became sick 7 days ago and went to see doctor on 3rd day. He called it a flu. He also prescribed me amoxicillin, so that I can take it on 6th day if I do not get better. When I feel sick on 1st day, I had very high fever and followed by sore throat. I had fever entire time during first three days. Now I still have fever and sore throat, but two times in the day. It goes away for 8 hours after I take 2 tynenol, 1 mucin and 2 Echinacea and 1 amoxicillin. I get fever and dry cough back and I take the medicine again for another 8 hours relief. Also I'm not able to speak when I take amoxicillin and get very serious head ache.
Also, I took TB skin test and was positive, but chest xray and blood reports were negative. I was not given prophylaxis though at the time. I like to know what to do.

i had the same symtoms and had the flue, bronchitis and strep, all at the same time. alot of rest, water, and soup (even if you dont have an appitite) is great.

I would say that you need to call your doctor and tell them thatwhen you take amoxicillin that it makes you have headaches and see what your doctor says.
