Hi Dr. Joshua;
I hope you can give me some direction. For the last 4 weeks (that I have noticed, may have been going on indefinetly??) I have had a low grade fever. It have never gone higher than 100.1 and it is usually 99.7-99.9 I have also been waking up at night bathed in sweat, loss of appetite, swollen lymph nodes in neck and itching. My GP ran a urinalysis on me and found that my white blood cell count was elevated in my urine. He gave me antibiotics and that was it, the fever did not go away. 2 months ago I went to the doctor because I had a red rash (looked like measles) on my face and neck and I was itching so bad that I was literally tearing at my neck and face. He ran blood work and found that I had a bacterial infection and that my vitamin B was low. He called the bacterial infection non-specific. I was wondering if you might be able to give me some idea as to what might be wrong.
Thank you and Happy New Year.
