Guest guest Posted March 30, 2010 Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 For those who have elevated temperatures during a flair up, how high does your fever get? I started having some " flu " like symptoms around 3-12-10. I could tell that I had a fever and felt terrible, it was over several days. The lowest I caught it was 100.8 the highest was 102.7. I did notify my PCP, who initially had blood cultures and basic lab work done ( looking for an infectious process) which was negative. I called again, in the morning after my temp was 102.7 in the night, and was told to go to the ER. Of course the ER never found a cause, I was also tested for influenza B, negative of course. The ER physician agreed that this could be some of my autoimmune problems. This is the second time I have went to the ER for fever of unknown orgin. I just was curious if others do this. I did NOT have a sore throat, no cough, no urinary tract infection symptoms. I felt nothing other than aches and like I was febrile.
