What Causes Body Ache Along With Chills And Fatigue?

Hi, on Friday went to City MD with flu symptoms of body aches, chills, sweats, no energy. Ear ache pressure and ringing in ear. No fever or cough. Doctor gave me Tamiflu and said I have an ear infection and gave me cifdinir. I do not feel any better at all. No change. Should either have started working...could it be something else? Thank you
