Hi! I am Clark! I have an on and off fever for 3 days already.

Hi,
Nothing to worry, it is normal feeling.
During fever pulse rates goes high leading to bounding and throbbing of pulse and giving rise to pulsatile feeling.
With temperature going down you will feel better.
Take plenty of water.
Ok and take care.
