Why Am I Getting Fever Even After Pleurisy Treatment?
I was diagnosed with pluerisy about 2 weeks ago. It seems to have cleared up. I am still running a fevor. It has been at least 2 weeks. I have been laying low the whole two weeks. It has been a steady 99-101. I went back to my doctor and he said they dont worry about fevers until it has been going on for 5 or more weeks. He thinks i caught a virous on top of what i orginally had, but does a virus go on for this long? I think that is completely rediculous. Please help. What is wrong with me?
