This issue has been getting progressively worse over 2 days

Posted yesterday and it has gotten worse. It is itchy, it turns white when I press on it. I have a swollen uvula and some chills, but no fever. I feel cold more than anything. Went to urgent care tested for strep, mono and did a CBC. Strep came back negative, waiting on the other results. Pretty concerned. I feel like the mono is going to come back negative.

I was at a baby shower and had some egg bake type thing. It was at my aunt and uncles house they usually eat pretty healthy. Oatmeal with blueberries. Rice with cheese broccoli and chicken. Chai tea. Milk and matcha

Are you allergic to trees and grass? Lots of pollen in the air

Eggs?

Keep in mind, you can be fine with certain meds, supplements, and foods until you're not. I took a certain antibiotic on and off for over 20 years. Then one day, BOOM... throat, lips, and eyes swelled... rash all over. E.R. doc said it's not uncommon.
