a very exasperating situation because of a persistent
fever of unknown origin.
Since you are 19 years old, I assume you are going to
school or at least were going to school. You my alos have
chnaged to a different apartment if you staretd college.
Let me just share my experience: ABoutt he time I started
going to a University, I also moved to an apartment not to
far from school. Though more expensive than most apartments
around the University, due to the humidity in that city, the
requirement on A/C maintenance is quite a job. Naturally,
apartment complexes and places like school, fails miserably.
In summary, I endured lingering low grade fever for a long
time, not realizing that the mold in the school building - I
had taken crae of air duct cleanign of A/C in may apartment
within a 6 monhs; it took 6 motnhs only because of the
procrsatination of the management. and I had to threaten
that I would report to Housing Authority - were causing it.
My fever didn't get to 101 like yours but between 99.5-
100.6 'F
You may simply be allergic to mold (Allergic Rhinitis) or
you may have Non-Allergic Rhinitis like I was diagnosed
with. My diagnosis came after many different blood test and
other test such as stress test, EEG test, ebcause I was just
weak ...because my body was fighting this fever due to mold.
Got to a *good* Allergist first and may even need to go to
ENT (Ear Nose and Throat Specialist) if the Allergist
recommends you to do so. In my case, the Allergist did Skin
Allergy test, and CT Scan. I wish he did food Allergy test
too. He probably didn't based on my answers to the
questionnaires ont he form. would have prefered he did to
thoroughly rule out sicne I was spenign so much money doing
all those other tests anyway.
Before my diagnosis, I was beginning to think that I had
soem weird disease though I didn't have fever during school
breaks, i.e failing to realize that my environemnt was
causing it.
Hope you find the culprit.
Good Luck.
Good luck.
Quoted message said:Last October I got Pharyngitis, Bronchitis and Tonsillitis
treated by Antibiotics and Cortisone. All three diseases
disappeared but a persistent fever of 37.5°C-38.5°C (99.5°F-
101.3°F) stays with me since then. I have been twice in
hospital and I made all possible clinical tests, but alll
results were negative except one: in December IgE was 4877
(max is 100) and now is 2800. Every day when I wake up
fever is usually 37.5°C (99.5°F), with headache, weakness
and I fill ill. In the afternoon fever grows up to
38.5°C (101.3°F). Besides often my lips go pale and I get
ring around my eyes. Anyhow it's a strange fever. I
give you an example: one day under armpit was
38.4°C (101.12°F) and 37.4°C(99.32°F) in the groin. To be
honest, in the lat two years I often have had a fever
of 37.2°C-37.3°C
(98.96°F-99.14°F) with headache and weakness. Can somebody
help me to find my sickness cause? I will appreciate
very much because I would like to go back indeed to my
normal life. Thank you.
