What Do Low Grade Fever And Painful Lymph Nodes Behind The Ears Indicate?

I m recovering from flu like symptoms. Taking prescribed medicine (Oseltamivir Phosphate Capsules 74 MG USP). Experiencing a low 1 degree temperature above 98.6 i.e. 99.4. Never had lymp nodes behind my ears and experiencing some soreness. Will I live? The lymp nodes estimate to be the size of a marble and are not hard and sometime difficult to find.
