Severe Pain In My Head With Swollen Glands In My Throat

my name is Jonathan Daniel Delgado, I am a 29 year old male. About a couple of weeks ago i became ill, the glands in my throat became extremely swollen and painful, my body became extremely weak and achey and i was in getting severe unbearable pains in my head. A couple of days later still sick and in pain i went to the emergency room and they ran tests and they said everything was normal and sent me home. After being sick in bed for 6 days i went to a doctor and he ran some blood tests and he said come back if it gets worse, a couple of days later it does get worse and the doctor diagnoses me with strep throat and gives me antibiotics and pain killers for the severe pain. I take the medication and a few days later i begin to get better but i still feel really weak and am having dizziness which was affecting my work. Eventually my throat gets better but for a couple of weeks after i feel extremely weak and have no strenght and im not able to function properly. So that perstists without any getting any better. And now a couple of weeks later the same things has come back with my throat and my head pains and body aches . The doctor told me that he tested my blood for hepatitis , anemia, diabetes, and mononucleosis but everything was normal. Now im on a different kind of antibiotics but im still feeling terrible. I need help please. I dont want to be sick anymore, What could be making me ill like this? The doctors keep telling my bloodwork is normal but something is obviously not normal.

You have got recurrent throat infection causing all problem.
Go for throat swab examination and culture as some bacteria are resistant to normal antibiotic.
After report go for specific antibiotic medicines for long time.
Take vit. B. complex and nourishing diet.
