I've been having these symptoms for about 7 months now, like this weird internal fever where I feel hot inside, but it doesn't show up on a thermometer. I also get frequent headaches and this annoying pain in my joints, especially in my hands and legs. It's gotten to the point where I'm just not motivated to do anything. What do you think might be going on with me?

I've been experiencing these body aches and mild fever every few weeks, like clockwork, about every 20 days. The aches are really intense, to the point where even my ears and fingers hurt, and I just feel feverish. It's weird because sometimes I think I have a fever, but when I check with a thermometer, it usually reads normal. Even so, I feel this internal feverishness and a general sense of weakness. What could be causing these recurring body pains and this mild feverish feeling? Is there something going on that I should be worried about?

It sounds like you might be experiencing recurrent episodes of a viral infection, inflammatory response, or an underlying autoimmune condition. Conditions like rheumatoid arthritis or viral infections can cause body aches and a low-grade fever, even without a measurable temperature increase. Its important to consult a doctor to rule out any underlying causes and get a proper diagnosis.

My husband has been struggling with swelling and a burning sensation in his wrist for the last couple of weeks. His recent blood work showed a high CRP of 7.12 mgL and an ESR of 11 mgL. Plus, he's got a very low vitamin D level, sitting at 9.23. I'm worried about what might be causing the high CRP, especially since I've noticed his skin turning red near the painful area. The doctor recommended he take Calcirol, CoQ10, and Shelcal HD 12. Could these actually help in reducing his CRP levels?
