A positive pregnancy test confirms early pregnancy. Severe body pain, headache, and tonsil pain may be due to viral infection, flu, or weakness, not pregnancy itself. Do not self medicate some medicines are unsafe during pregnancy. Focus on rest, hydration, and light food. Avoid spicy/fried items.consult a doctor if needed.
