I'm curious:  Did your fever go away, after they treated your mild kidney infection?
   Also, are you drinking enough water?  And my last question, do you haver any signs of an under-lying infection, such a bladder infection (burning, urgency) or a tooth-infection, or a sore-throat?
   I havent run a fever with my treatment, but many do~

Hi I remember your earlier post. I thought you did contact your doctor about your fever? If not you may want to do so just to see. I saw in the other post they ran some tests and things were OK except they found a minor infection and took a culture of your kidneys. Has your hematologist weighed in on all this?

I pretty much run a low-grade fever all the time too. It subsides with Tylenol but only if I take it a few times a day. I asked my PA about it and she said since I don't have any other symptoms that accompany a fever that they could adjust my Peg and/or Riba. Uhhh...no thanks.

The thing is if you feel like you are being blown off or discounted by your doctors and that something could really possibly be the matter then you might want to step up how persistent you are with these folks.

After my shot I have sometimes had a low grade fever. You should talk to your doctor if you have had this fever for a month. God Bless

I finished treatment about 6 weeks ago and while treating I ran a fever randomly during the 24 weeks that I treated. No rhime or reason, no particular time of the week so I could blame in on my shot, just happened. One time got to about 102 took tylenol and it broke. I also had constant night sweats. I would mention it to your Dr.
