Not true fever but:: It is not considered fever unless 100.4 but fever is how our body fights infection so do not try to lower it with meds. It's not unusual for a viral infection to persist a few weeks. Get plenty of sleep, drink lots of water, avoid sweets, try Vit. C 1000 mg 4x/day, Vit D 10,000 iu/day for 2 weeks, Vit A 10,000 iu/day and immune-boosting herbs like Andrographis, Astragalus and Isatis root.
