What Do Red Spots On Epiglottis And Sore Throat Indicate?

My epiglottis has red spots on it and my throat is sore. I have had sinus type headaches for a few days and intestinal issues for about a week. I tested negative for strep and had to leave before the doctor came in the room because I had waited too long and was overdue to get my children.
