Cough medicine: Both medicine had Tylenol (acetaminophen) in common, others are different class with different mechanism of action to control the sinus secretion and cough, it should be ok as long you take the recommended dose.

Can male breast cancer reoccur in the thyroid after 8 years of mastectomy, radiotherapy and chemotherapy?

Less likely: The thyroid would be an unusual spot for breast cancer to spread. More common sites would be bone, liver, lung and brain. But with cancer, anything is possible. If there is a nodule on the thyroid the best thing to do would be an ultrasound guided biopsy if it looks concerning.

See a doctor: Upper respiratory infections are usually caused by a virus and they are usually gone after 5-7 days. If symptoms are persisting for over 7 days its time to get an doctor's examination. Sometimes a viral URI will develop a secondary bacterial infection which will be relieved with prescription antibiotics. A doctor can also swab the throat and check for streptoccocal infection.

No: Pharyngitis due to gonocuccus would be present sice january, nor chlamydia. To note sometimes neisseria meningitidis is islated from the throat but it is not associated with sexual transmission.

Depends : Std's with sore throat are much less likely than sore throat from common reasons. Unprotected sex increases the risk.

...: Could mean fatigue, are you sleeping 6h-8h every night? Do you wake up at the same time most days? Do you drink 3qts/water daily? Do you walk 30 minutes every day? If not, your body is tired and wants to sleep, so will have to be shaken, or shivered, to wake up. If you walk 30min daily, avoid fried & sugary food, drink 3qts water daily, you see the difference.
