10yr DS always ill

Hi, my DS who is 10, always seems to be poorly. For years he had problems with sore throats and glands becoming enlarged in his stomach. We finally had his tonsils out last year and that has helped the glands in the stomach. We had a small respite over the summer but since he’s been back at school we’ve had lots and lots of time off with high temperatures, chest infection, vertigo, flu and the usual viral infections.
We’ve been back to the doctors again today and she just said rest, fluids but doesn’t think he is more susceptible to illness than then Next child.
Am I just overreacting here or should I push for a referral back to the paediatrician?
