Have Painful Periods, Endometriosis, Swollen Joints. Done With Complete Blood Count. Taking Susten. Side Effect?
Thus, I went in for second opinion as my hand palms have also started becoming red, hot, burning and sometimes my face also becomes hot and fever is still there in same pattern and the other gynac said its an infection and no ovarian abscess is there and is all clear. I was prescribed combiflam, doxy ds and metrogyl for 14 days, however, the fever still continues and I am not able to tolerate these medicines any more so have stopped and I am totally confused as I have now landed with sore throat also. This fever is making me go crazy.
Thanks for writing to us. My comments are as follows:
1. Based on your description, I feel your should be screened for systemic illness apart from pelvic assessment especially when ultrasound scan is clear. Persistent low grade fever, joint pain, sorethroad and high C-reactive protein can have an immunological basis. It would be worthwhile to consult your physician and if needed fix an appointment with immunologist / rheumatologist for further evaluation.
2. Low grade fever with joint swelling/pain with abdominal cramps can also be related to systemic viral infection
A detailed systemic examination can provide more clues to isolate the problem. Therefore I think it would be right to head towards your physician's office rather than gynecologist and plan further evaluation. An immunology consult can be ordered if needed.
Hope I have answered your query If you have further questions I will be happy to help you.

The physician has precribed some medicines from his own shelf and are not branded ones, however, the fever for the first time yesterday was 98.4 in the morning and 99.1 in the evening. Today evening, I would be getting urine culture report. However, I had again 100.00 temp today morning with hot palms and face.

Nice to see you again.
The reports suggest possible urinary tract infection. As your doctor already prescribed you urine culture and sensitivity test, I think you should wait for culture and sensitivity test report and take antibiotics accordingly.
Take plenty of fluids orally. Maintain proper hygiene, use cotton undergarments and take proper and healthy diet. As urinary tract infection can be easily treated, do not be concerned.
Hope I have answered your query If you are satisfied with answer kindly close the query and rate the answer or you have more query I will be happy to answer you.
