What Causes Rash With Fever And Nausea?
I am a 52 yr old male with rash, fever, and nausea for 5 days. White blood count was normal.
Fever was over 103 for several days; now around 100. Recently was in hospital for diverticulitus while there I was on cipro and flagyl. Now taking doxycycline for 5 days. My doctor has no idea what I have. Rash is not on head, face, hands, or feet. Rash does not itch.

As your history suggests the rash is mostly due to side effect of cipro or flagyl which is quite happening in some patients. For this first of all you just have to discontinue these drugs and take tab avil 50 mg thrice daily or tab levocetrizine 5 mg twice daily after meals for rashes with tab crocin or simply tab paracetamol three times daily for fever. For nausea you have to take cap pantop-dsr or cap rabson-dsr twice daily empty stomach.
