Brief Answer:
A viral fever

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for the information.
It appears that the fever is of viral origin.
Viral infections are generally self remitting and should subside by week with the use of NSAID group of anti pyretic drugs and adequate nutrition.

I suggest you to include proper and adequate nutrition esp. calories intake and fluid. It will help the body immune mechanism to fight back the virus. Anti pyretic /analgesic group of NSAIDS drugs such as tylenol is helpful in this condition. You can take tylenol one tab as and when you develop fever. It will take care of the fever and generalised bodyache.

It would be better if you can visit a physician and discus the above advice.

Welcome for further queries.
Regards,
Dr Pankaj Borade
