Brief Answer:
Fever and enlarged lymph nodes
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for contacting HCM with your health care concerns
I am sorry to hear that you are suffering from sore throat fever night sweats and enlarged lymph nodes. This should be all related to an infection either viral like the flu or bacterial infection like strep. You need to see your medical provider to run tests to find the source of the infection. I would not be super alarmed or concerned but I would not ignore this. You should see your medical provider in the next few days.
