Well, in all honesty, it doesn't sound like you have the cold. There are several things you could have. Have you been feeling nauseous as well? Well anyways, to me it sounds more like you have the beginnings (or end) of Strep. There is also the possibility of it being a severe attack from your allergies; apparently this year the pollen count is absolutely awful.
Anyways:
If it's Strep, then the only thing you can do is go to your doctor and get the right antibiotics, you should be good in about ten days after your first dose (that is unless you have a very small case)--don't forget to eat some yogurt while your on antibiotics unless you want to get a nasty yeast infection.
If it's allergies, find out what allergie medicine works best for you, and start with small doses of it; also, avoid going outside for frivoulous reasons, and if you have a pet, try not to make to much contact with it (pets tend to carry a lot of pollen on them after going outside).
