Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone carefully through the details. The evening chills concern me. You need proper evaluation and investigation to be done and tuberculosis needs to be excluded. I will insist on the following tests:
* Blood for counts and C-Reactive protein (CRP)
* Chest X-Ray - PA view
You also need to visit a doctor and get a clinical evaluation done. I would insist you to take it seriously and not to ignore it.
Regards
