Agree with current treatment.

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query.

I can understand your discomfort on account of fever, headache and body aches.

However, normal MRI is a reassuring news!

Please continue with your current treatment, as it seems to be along correct lines.

You would feel better in a week or two.

I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.
