Question

I experience evening shivering, fever, headache, and body pain. My blood report taken on Friday was normal, with no positive results for malaria or typhoid. Still, the fever returns daily in the evening with shivering, and after taking Dolo 650, it calms down for 3 to 4 hours. I started Lumerex 80 mg yesterday. Please advise if hospital admission is required?

Recurring evening fever with shivering, body ache, and headache even after normal tests may point to a viral or undiagnosed infection. Since Lumerex has been used in malaria treatment, it is best to complete the course. If fever persists beyond 3 to 4 days despite treatment, hospital evaluation is recommended.

Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test or Take a Dengue NS1 Antigen - Elisa Test
