This could be within the category of fever of unknown origin. A classical cause was tuberculosis, but have seen cases of collagen vascular disease, and even familial Mediterranean fever. One must suspect occult indolent infections, emerging cancerous conditions, arteritis/ vasculitis, and some very unusual presentations of disease. If you suffer fevers, maybe we can help via virtual consult.
