I am absolutely fed up with my reoccurring fever, chills, and feeling of weakness. I am 19 years old, and feel as if i am constantly getting sick. For the past month or so, i have been having a reoccurring fever with chills and weakness and an occasional soar throat. I felt better for a day or so, and now it is back. I was tested for strep and it came back negative, and my dr sent me home with allergy medicine, which really is not what i feel i needed. I get enough sleep, excersize, and i at healthy, so i am really curious why I keep feeling this way. I am scared, and assuming the worst, I would really just like a second opinion at this point.
Hello You are having fever, chills weakness and sore throat for one month and recurring. These symptoms may be due to these possibilities, these include.1 Typhoid fever, diagnosis can be confirmed by Tidal test and serology test.2 Malaria, is another reason of such type of fever, if it is untreated, resistant and neglected.3 Tuberculosis, diagnosis can be confirmed by tuberculin test, with X-ray chest and blood for CBC, ESR (if very high, suggestive of some chronic infection. However, there are so many other reasons of such fever like URINARY tract infection (urine examination) , anemia (hemoglobin examination), jaundice (hepatitis). In my opinion consult another physician and get his opinion (2nd one). Hope for good.
