    Sounds like it could be strep throat. Go see your doctor immediately. I had it before and had to be hospitalized because I thought it would just go away and waited too long to go to the doctor. It is also highly contagious.

    You may either be developing strep throat or tonsilitis. Go to the doctor if the sore throat gets worse. Don't wait for a fever....not everyone always gets one.
