I've been noticing some chest tightness over the past few days. Before that, I had this weird throat discomfort. It wasn't accompanied by any fever or cold symptoms, but I just felt like I needed to cough, though it wasn't exactly a cough and it seemed to settle down somehow. Anyway, this morning I woke up with a severe headache, and yesterday I ended up vomiting, but it was just gas, nothing serious. I felt slightly better afterward. Could you recommend any remedies for this?

I'm really worried because I've been having this fever that just won't go away. I had it originally on February 10th, took some medicine, and felt okay, but then it came back on the 19th, and even after seeing a doctor and taking the prescribed meds, the fever's still hovering around 100F or 101F. I even had some tests done like the Typhidot Igm and blood cultures which came back negative, and my CBC was normal, but the fever didn't stop. I was put on TaximO and Calpol 500, which seemed to help for a bit, but after three days, the fever returned. Now, with my regular doctor unavailable, I switched to another one who ran more tests like the thyroid panel and CRP, and turned out the CRP is positive. They also found my bilirubin to be a bit high and ALT levels at 79. The new doctor's prescribed Dolo 650 and Pantocid, and I'm noticing that the fever goes down after taking paracetamol, but it just comes back after a few hours. What's going on with me? Is there something serious causing the fever to keep coming back?
