What Could On And Off High Fever Followed By Profuse Sweating Indicate?

I started running a fever of 103.5 Thursday morning around 3.30 am. After chills and sweating profusely It broke by 10.30 am. Starting around 1pm on Thursday I have been running a fever ranging from 100.7 to 102.5 Which after sweating perversely broke this morning by 9 am. I ve started running a fever again from 100.7 to 102.3 so far. I am drinking plenty of water. I have eaten today and yesterday which was the first I had eaten since Wednesday night. I had a double mastectomy back in Oct 2012. I don t normally run a fever like this.

I really appreciate your concern, viral infection may be likely and this is nothing to worry but this may not be due to any infection, still better to get done some test, to rule out some infection, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
