Thanks so much for your help Bryanna,

I'll try to respond to your questions and comments as relevantly as I can:

"...there was most likely something brewing there." Although seemingly uncommon from what I've read, I've got a very thorough and helpful doctor. If he had noticed something, even something tiny, he would have pointed it out (Even if to say, "It's very likely nothing to worry about but...").

"Did you complete the antibiotic prescription..." I don't actually remember but I don't see any reason I wouldn't have. I know it's often a stressed point to continue use even after signs of feeling better. I'd put it at a high 90% I did complete my use.

"...if they are pus and not food..." I'm certain it's not food but white sores all over my tonsils. Looking up tonsillitis per your recommendation I saw I have eleven of the twelve likely symptoms according to WebMD. It also states children often feel abdominal pain which I experienced for the first time this morning (although I'm 22?).

"The fact that you believe it is spreading to your lower lip needs another evaluation." Can tonsillitis not spread to the lips? If it can't (and the wisdom tooth extraction infection can't) then I guess I have two canker sores along with whatever mess is going on.

"Did your physician put you on an antibiotic or tell you to just wait it out?" I didn't see my physician. The strep test was performed from a lab at Kaiser. However my mom is an advice nurse, though this is outside of her expertise, and she's encouraging me to wait it out.

"Is your tongue coated with a white coating?" Yes, there is a thin white layer across my tongue.

"Do you have any sores, other than on the lip, in your mouth?" No other sores than the two on my lip.

"Do you something have sinus, stomach or digestive problems?" Extremely infrequently.

"Do you have any swollen glands?" Yes, I can only turn my head about 45 degrees each way. Also, two points, one on the left and one on the right side of my jaw are slightly swollen and very tender to the touch. Lastly, on my right eyebrow is another swollen, more so than the jaw, and tender spot.

"Are you sick often?" I'm not sick very often. I'd guess about two or three times a year.

As far as I'm feeling, I only woke up one time each the past two nights which I'm extremely grateful for. Everything feels the same as yesterday except a little decrease in pressure from my ears. My gums are still so tender to the touch that eating anything more solid yogurt causes pain.

"Thanks for adding the joke..... ;-)" And here's another:
The only thing worth paying an arm and a leg for is the ability to regenerate limbs.

Thanks again,

Jeremy
