The dr I saw this morning seems to think its tonsillitis even though I had my tonsils out when I was 16. When I questioned it her response was that they may have only taken part of it want to cry now. I've felt like crap since Christmas Day. I've been gargling salt water, lonzenges, dare I say it - shots on alcohol anything I can to stop it.

Hopefully this new antibiotic and prednisone will help

If this is what it is I really will cry!! I've done enough antibiotics etc for tonsillitis!!!
Yeah they only take 70% sadly i found out from a ENT specialist after having mine out then getting continous infections after. What antibiotics did you get? I hope they start helping and you start feeling better soon. Huge hugs xx
