Strep: Hello, the numbers you are describing are not considered a fever. In general 100.4 and greater is considered a fever. The number you are describing is a normal variation of day to day temperatures. If you are feeling ill or are not improving please get checked out.

Two weeks ago I was given penicillin for an ear infection and my tonsils were extremely swollen; I tested negative for strep type A. I finished my 10 days of medicine and my tonsils are still pretty large but no sore throat or fever. It's awkward to drink
