Low grade fever- unknown cause

Hi. I am 18 years old female suffering from low grade fever. The fever is from past three years and it goes on and off. Firstly i was diagnosed tyhpoid and given its treatment. Then i had stool culture test which came back normal and doctor said its not tyhphoid. I often suffer from intestine infection (dnt knw wats tht called) and get intravenous treatment. All my tests are fine including blood tests, ultrasounds, heart echo, chest scan, urine tests, ANA, blood and urine cultures, rheumatid arthritis and tb tests.
My current symptoms are :
- fatigue
- dizziness
- weakness
- head and neck ache ( my neck x-ray is clear)
- nausea, esp after taking my meal
Now recently i have strted to feel pain in my armpit and breast and sensation of burning.
I want to know what can be the possible causes of this type of fever ?
I have lost weight and have gotten weak. My stmch is often upset.
Please help me m really lost :-(

What intestinal infections you suffer from frequently?

Your problem sounds GI in nature to me.  Have you seen a Gastroenterologist or an Infectious Disease Specialist?  

Also, I would recommend an endoscopy of your upper GI.
