Its sounds like you may have it.
You tonsils/glands will be noticeable swollen if you do.
If you are suffering from fevers you may have contracted glandular fever, as the symptoms can be similar however your tonsils can be significantly less swollen.
Go to a doctor and get some antibiotics. A common indication if you have glandular over tonsillitis is you will gain a rash as a reaction from the antibiotics in the form of red dots scattered across your body.
Even if you can’t sleep ensure you get lots of rest and have lots a vitamins, water and fruit juice.
It could be but it could also be a lot of other things. You need to get to a doctor ASAP because tonsillitis could hamper your breathing if left unchecked. As a child I had chronic tonsillitis and stopped breathing all together on two occasions because my tonsils had swollen so much. Thankfully my parents were there and aware both times, after the 2nd time the doctors and my parents decided to remove my tonsils even though I was very young at the time.
I also used to spike a good enough fever to hallucinate when I got tonsillitis and found I felt worst in the early morning and the mid evening.
In any case get yourself to a doctor, tonsillitis or no you need to get it checked out and taken care of.
