hello, i am a 17 year old girl in year 12.
I started developing symptons 1 month and a bit ago starting with just a headache, really sore throat(hurting to swalllow), tiredness(started out of no where),glands were inflammed and throat covered in a white covering.
I went home sick when i started developing flu like symptoms- though it was absolutley nothing.
my mum took me to the doctor on the tuesday after i told her i had a white covering at the back of my throat. the doctor felt my glands which she thought was either tonsilitis or glandular fever( it would be impossible for me to have tonsilitis as i got them out at a child, she was shocked becuase my glands were that swollen) she did a throat swab and put me on penacilin for my throat infection and a high dostage of headache tablets.
A week later there was an improvement of the sore infection through the medication perscribed, but i was still extremely tired constanty, i was sleeping 16 hours a day, i would have a nap constanly through the day, my mom would push me to go to school which i would only last 2hr at school before i started falling asleep in class, i still had really bad headaches which don't seem to change even when i take tablets for it.
so a week later my mom took me to the doctors again i got a blood- test and a swab of my throat- came up negative, 2 weeks later my mom took me back to the doctor where i got another blood- test- came up negative again
the doctors have no idea what is wrong with me nor do my parents, but i am usually a full of energy type of person and this isn't normal to be feeling this tired/ weak for so long.
anywasy This tiredness and the headacheshas have stayed around for a month and a bit which is causing me to miss out on a lot of school which is taking a tol on my school work, i've had exams where i physically can't study for becuase it wears me out so much.
I can last a few hours but then it crashes on me and i will get extremly tired and all i will want to do is sleep.
does any one have any suggestions to what it could be or something?
