Hi,
I just posted about my combination of sinus and issues with tonsils.
Did your Dr renew the prescription for the antibiotics? My Dr will keep me on antibiotics longer than the usual 10 or 14 day dose to make sure thei nfection clears. Also, some antibiotics work better than others.
I'd say see the specialist for another opinion. Ask lots of questions and write down anything to cover at the appt in advance. I always go home still thinking I did not get enough answers from the Drs.
As for physical vs. psychological - it seems that stress and worry make the condition worse and may interfere with sleep. In my case, it is not just psychological.  If I am very anxious and stressed, my immune system seems to be effected because of less rest and sleep. When you get run down, it is very hard to get better especially if you stay in a constant state of worry and stress. Try to get more rest and continue to follow up with the Drs. Good luck/feel better soon.

Hi

Do you smoke?

You have a soar throat, I had this and at that time I noticed that its may be soar throat or may be nothing

Just for 2 days do not pay attention to this and you will see that everything is ok
Its just psychological
