Question 3

I've been having a fever at the same time every day, with shivering and body pain for the last 45 days. I visited a doctor, but they couldn't diagnose what's going on. Can you help me figure out what this might be? It's been pretty frustrating and worrying.

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you may have a recurring fever pattern, possibly due to an infection like malaria, dengue, or typhoid, which needs specific testing. Request blood tests like CBC, malarial parasite, and typhoid panel, and ensure adequate hydration and rest while awaiting results.
