I'm experiencing a fever that started yesterday, and while my overall body temperature is elevated, I've noticed that my hands and feet feel even hotter than the rest of me. Could this be an indication of something specific?

Recovering from jaundice requires patience and careful monitoring.

Possible Reasons for Mild Fever and Nausea

Residual liver inflammation: Although your bilirubin levels have normalized, your liver might still be recovering, causing mild inflammation and fever.

Medication side effects: Liv 52, Ulsys 300, and Nirocil syrup can cause nausea and mild fever as side effects.

Gastrointestinal issues: Nausea and mild fever can be symptoms of gastrointestinal issues, such as gastritis or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

Relapse or re-infection: Although unlikely, it's essential to consider the possibility of a relapse or re-infection, especially if you're not following proper hygiene and dietary guidelines.

Test Results

Bilirubin 0.7: Within normal range (0.1-1.2 mgdL).

SGOT 90 and SGPT 65: Slightly elevated liver enzymes, indicating some residual liver inflammation.

Next Steps

Consult your doctor: Discuss your symptoms and test results with your doctor to determine the best course of action.

Monitor your symptoms: Keep track of your fever, nausea, and any other symptoms to share with your doctor.

Adhere to your treatment plan: Continue taking your prescribed medications and following your dietary guidelines.

Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water to help your liver function properly.

I've been experiencing a mild fever every evening for the past week, usually staying under 100, mostly around 99. But then it seems to return to normal by the next morning. I've also had occasional headaches, though my stomach feels okay. I had a CBC and urine ESR done, and everything came back fine. What could possibly be causing this?

Sounds like you may be experiencing a low-grade fever in the evenings, along with occasional headaches. Since your CBC, urine, and ESR tests are normal, it is less likely to be due to an infection. One possible reason for your symptoms could be a viral infection. I recommend taking Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every evening when you have a fever. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
