No period- can antibiotics and being ill delay it

I'm 30 yrs and regular with periods and don't take any contraceptive pills etc. I was due 6 days ago but the week before I got tonsilities and been stressed at work. Was given penicillin and taking pain killers every 4 hours for the whole week. Was very ill as the infection was very bad but now I'm better and no sign or feeling of a period. I'm certain I'm not pregnant as I always track when I'm ovalating and avoid that week! Tonight I've got really light feeling in my ovary area but wanted to know if you think being ill and taking medication could affect my period being late it even miss it? I took a pregnancy test yesterday which is negative and I was 5 days late then. So surely it would show if I was. Very concerned and Confussed as to what is going on as I'm always on time!!
