Hi,
The symptoms you describe in my opinion require that a proper spine exam be done. It is not rare for spinal TB or Pott s disease to present as such. X rays and erythrocyte sedimentation rates, coupled with biopsies and Intradermal reactions are generally diagnostic procedures used. Check for otther causes of chronic fever like Salmonellosis, sarcoidosis or come tumors. The opinion of an internist would be most welcome under these circumstances. Kind regards
