See Doc timely...: Anyone with fever will direct doc to think about: upper respiratory/lung infection?, uti?, any GI flu?, viral infection?, or rare autoimmune disease?, etc. So, you should bring her to see doc although the number of her creatinine and uric acid are okay. To do so, collect the features, degree, and progress of her symptoms, and bring those to doc for review, analysis, more hx, physicals, and tests..

Yes: Neither the creatinine (kidney function) or the uric acid (can be associated with gout) are too abnormal and neither is associated with fevers.
