Hi,

I came down with something (never got tested) 2-3 months ago with symptoms like stuffed up sinuses, sneezing, total loss of smell and taste, but no fever. After like a week those symptoms went away and i developed a sore throat which blew up into severe tonsillitis (swollen tonsils and lymph nodes, no fever) for about 8 days then got much better. I thought it was going away but it didn't for a month now. The tonsils are swollen but no redness, irritation, white spots, or puss and my lymph nodes stay swollen which gives me a mild migraine. I got ahold of some amoxicillin and took that for 5 days but zero improvement so I don't think its strep. I have no other symptoms. What could it be? Any info is much appreciated!
