Question

Answer 1

Please get pushy with your doctors and demand they keep looking.   A 104 temp is very hard on things like your hearing and your heart (constant inflammation).  You should ask them to check CRP and homocysteine also.  That will find out if there is an inflammation.  Adults don't get 104 temps because of nothing.  ANd the night sweats in between are your body trying to get rid of something.  If you get tired of seeing doctors then find a good homeopathic/nutritionist and at least fight for your health.  

Answer 2

Make an appointment to see a Dr. the ER is for acute emergencies, if this has been an ongoing problem it will not be resolved by repeated trips to the ER. You need a Dr who can get a complete history, order tests and have the ability to rule out other problems. ER does not provide for ongoing or a continuim of care in matters like this

Answer 3

Hi,

Please get a second opinion, Try an internist.

Good luck.

Answer 5

I would definitely get another opinion... Ask the doctor to check your CPK count... Ask if it could be Lupus or a flair up of another auto-immune problem...
