as I had a consistent fever for 3 weeks. It went up and down between 99 and 103. I have a bad heart so Doc was really concerned. Tested me for everything under the sun they could and couldn't figure out an exact cause. A lot of folks in my area have had the same thing, it lasts and won't go away. My fever finally broke just before Xmas after my second Z-Pac. Had all my vaccines back in early October ut they can't get them all. I agree, there's some strange critter floating around out there this winter!
