Sorry for your troubles it us very worrysome i know. Does heany other symptoms like joint pain in his wrist or hands or his legs or feet or even all over , before or after the fever. Extreme fatigue/ tired more than he should be. A healthy person may not notice a low grade fever of 99, a sick person my be knocked on there feet from it. I have systemic lupus so this would bother me my normal ok temp is 97.4 what about your husband? Have the doctor test him for varies autoimmunne disease, simply a blood test can answer all his questions not much elsr as there are no cures for many but it atleast gets him in a fighting chances and perhaps some relief from it with the right nedications,, panel for lupus, ra, ms, to start and again simple blood test so dont take no, just have them ruled out, good luck and best wishes.-sandee74
