it is normal to feel sick for a day or two when you have acute pharyngitis. the nausea could be caused by the antibiotic or just by being sick. try to eat something if you can -- anything. but if you can't keep water or liquids down you need to let your doctor know. you don't want to become dehydrated. also if you're not starting to feel better after a couple of days give your doctor a call. several of the symptoms you describe such as diarrhea chest pains and stomach pains are not symptoms of pharyngitis so that's something you need to discuss with your doctor to see if something else is going on.
