Thanks folks, just a brief update, so since the advice, no gym but walking and although not wanting to eat I am making an effort to! I have been on 2 sets of antibiotics, nothings worked, seen a nurse on Friday so told me to go away as he could do nothing, luckily managed to secure an ENT consultant today to discuss.
Thanks for all your positive and uplifting comments and advice, very appreciative. I am glad I joined this community.
