Upper respiratory infection

Fran
Just got back from the ER after a clue test, strep test and chest XRay, all negative.. Turns out it's a URI. These have been the worst few days ever. Sore throat, fever, cough, body aches. I literally feel like I'm dying. I was told all I can take is Tylenol, drink lots of water and rest. This sucks so bad. Anyone else go through this?
