Infections

hello , im a health professional. fever started 3.5 weeks ago, swab negative, got blood test done which are normal. no longer 38 fever for almost 7 days now but despite this week being my fourth week I still get 37.8 temperature spike( tympanic temperature) . do I still need to isolate? what temperature will be ideal for me to go out of my room. i never had cough or any other symptom. only fever

That’s really strange sfj I was thinking when I went to the hospital why do they keep going on about the tempature I have only had it a few times in the nearly 7 weeks also the cough I got was minimal I would say you probably want your tempature down a little it’s going to be interesting when everyone goes back to work

so your COVID-19 test was negative? You may be experiencing a different virus. That may be why you have a low-grade fever. you could still be contagious with whatever virus you have. Probably wait until it’s closer to 37 and when you are feeling better in general.

hey that’s really strange but you need boost your body immunity. So eat some healthy foods avoid red meaty foods. you maybe still contagious so try avoid close human contacts. you can go for another PCR test too. Please meed a doctor soon. here’s tip , keep your mind clear, try some meditation method. mindfulness is the most important part of our health.

I am on antibiotics now for last 3 days as I had little pain under chin and near ears and on phone consultation dr prescribed me Amoxicillin..now pain is gone but fever is still there comes and goes..I am even scared to check…I don’t know what will be the next step after antibiotics…

Hi SFJ;

Merry Christmas honey. You sound like me. My only symptoms are: (and I have not been tested as doctor said it was a sinus infection and I am on day 5 of antibiotics which don’t seem to be working)

*Fever daily for 15 days. Fine in the morning and evening but spike in afternoon. Low-grade but a fever none-the-less
*Eyes are on FIRE most days
*Headaches some days
*Nasal passages are either clogged like concrete or running like a faucet

All my labs were fine but this relentless fever is concerning and keep thinking it’s cancer so something else!
