Wierd sickness
Over the past couple of days I've had the wierdest illness. I wouldn't really consider it the flu, I've had the flue before plenty of times and it was not like this. On Sunday night I started getting a soar throat and the back of my neck was starting to hurt. By the end of the night my whole neck & lower head was hurting and I could barely even turn my head. My whole body ached and I was getting the chills. Monday and tuesday was the same thing. Sore throat that totally affected my whole neck & head. Have you ever had this or know what its called?

It could be a bad throat infection or perhaps just a different strain of flu.
Either way, you should really see your doctor about this as soon as possible, as he might be able to prescribe some anti-biotics for you. Take some paracetamol too, to help bring down any fever you might have and hopefully numb the pain in your throat a little.
Drink plenty of fluids and rest as much as possible.

If you have white patches on your tonsils then it could be tonsilittis... and it's not fun. If that's it then your doctor will probably give you penacillin for it. Tonsilittis will keep you bed ridden for a week or so and it will be the worst pain you've ever felt and will probably make you cry every day. I'm not trying to be funny or anything but that's what happened to me and I have an extremely high pain tolerance. Just go to your doctor and see what it is.

I've had that before, and really maybe you should go to the doctor..
It could be the flu, because it effects your whole body. But the best thing to do is to go to the doctor and get medication.
