Presistent fever(?), IBS, GERD, hyperacidity, sore threat, wierd symptoms

I am unmarried, 24 yr old Male, 5'10'' height, 67Kg (BMI:21).

I have a mild feverish(?) feeling since past three-four years. The problem gets worsen in AC (Air conditioned environment). I'm the only one in the office, wearing a woolen sweater in mid summers!!

1. Sometimes, there's mild pain in the eye balls and a headache (possibly migraine).
2. Also my body seems to emit quite some heat, when I am resting/sleeping or sitting (as if someone's turned on a heater inside me).
3. Surprisingly, I haven't lost any weight, Hemoglobin is around 14.5. Urine reports are normal
4. My normal body temperature is around 96-97 F (when I feel feverish like feeling); when the my body feels terribly burning, the temperature is around 99F. Don't know if it could be called as fever, but I feel cold, while my body has a burning sensation.
5. My palms and feet burn the most and are possibly at a temperature of around 100F when the temperature beneath the tongue is 97F !!
6. I started exercising in Gym (Cardio + weights) for about 3 months, but it didn't seem to relieve any symptoms
7. I also have hyperacidity/heart burn kind of symptoms (Also hiatal hernia - detected by Endoscopy) since past 3-4 years, but I take medicines only on a need basis and not regularly. There's a frequent acidic reflux when I sleep, even after elevating my bed
8. I possibly also have IBS (Irritable Bowel syndrome)
9. I catch throat infection/pharynigitis/sore throat almost once every 2-3 months, which is generally cured by Penicillin/Gatifloxacin
10. Finally, my lower back (spinal cord) pains on direct exposure to slightly cold air, so I need to almost always sleep with my back facing down.

Most doctors, whom I have consulted, suggest that its some kind of depression, but I have no major tension as of now. I get a proper 8 hours sleep (can even sleep for more than 12 hours, if I have enough time :)

I have regular diet and I am fit otherwise, but hyperacidity and the feverish feeling is killing me for past few years. I believe it's a major setback, otherwise, I could have progressed by leaps and bounds in my life.

Please help!!

Hi, just read your post...sounds very much to me like Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction (CFIDS). Go to the CFIDS website and look at the symptoms and see if they are consistent with yours. Low grade temps are all part of it. Wish you well...don't forget to look into this....it may hold an answer for you.
