Need more info: Further history, physical exam and lab results would be necessary. If you have not seen an infectious diseases expert in consultation suggest strongly that you do so now. Hope this gets worked out successfully.

Circadian rhythm : Your body has daily cycles. For instance, most people have their lowest cortisol levels at night, and highest in the morning. This effects the fever. Many people with a febrile illness spike a high temp at night and are normal in the morning
