Basically...about 4 hours ago, was sat here...and just started to get throat pain, then pain in my ears, then feel congested about the nasal areas and roof of my mouth is sore, glands have risen, throats tightened...came on rather quickly...really random?! Any ideas?!!
Another thing, it maybe just me but I get into 'habits' that end really pissing me off. Examples of past ones, needing to click my toes every 30 seconds, or just constantly needing to wriggle them, pushing the tops of my fingers with my thumbs - literally constantly pushing the tips, and my worst one which gives me painful ears like now, and self-induced headaches is constantly crunching my ears in side as though to release pressure...but loads, I just have to do it. This leaves me tired, when I was younger I used to cry because there were the urges to constantly do it - the pressure release thing hurts - my ears become tender and sore, but if I don't do it, I get really distressed...I almost become obbsessed to doing it. I'm an oddball aren't I..lol...any ideas?!

Strange one - do you constantly feel the need to fidget?
On the first point - tonsillitis?
Tonsolitis is what I thought, used to suffer frequently but there's none of the usual signs although when looking down my throat and poking them tonsils, there were redder than normal areas - it just feels like painfully dry...but it's not, so it just hurts like hell!
Thanks for quick reply btw Panthro -much appreciated!!

We all have habits - for example I rub my nose with my top lip [its a gift BTW
and so many more that I probably don't realise.
Unless they are taking over your life I suggest you ignore them
Argh! In the past 6 months i have found my self doing this loads, i don't even know how it came about because i didn't even know i could do it
Hmm so if your weird, i must be too
