contiinued fever

[ofcrabink]

My daughter is 14 months and has been running a fever every evening for over a month. She has no other sign just the fever. It was starting around 1pm or later and would go away till with 1 or two doses of medicine until the next night. Now it is more constant all day since yesterday and running from 101 to 104. She has been to the doctor repeatedly and has had multiple test including for cat scratch and mono and many others but everything is coming back neg. the only thing these labs have showed that is not normal is count a little high (indicating virus) and antibodies very slightly low (400 something instead of 500). Any one have any advice on what it could be or reccommendations on what to test for? thank you for your time.

Ok, so no Dr will say this is true, but my little girl had the same prob. She was in and out of the hosp for years. After a ton of test I asked her Dr about food or environmental allergies. She said that there is now way that allergies could cause these fevers. I had them tested anyway. It was a blood test you can have done out of pocket if the Dr will not do it. It cost me $300, but it was worth it. She was highly allergic to chocolate and goats milk , among many other things . Her fevers, that use to run around 101 to 106.7 ,went away in about a month. Now she is 5 years old and living a normal life. My Dr apologized and admitted that it was wrong to rule out any possibilities.

Good luck
Hope it helps
