Thanks for posting your query to HCM
You have undergone some investigation and didnt find any abnormality, but I wanted to know your complete blood count report weather it shows infection or not and what treatment have you had so far .
I wanted to told you that in our country Malaria is endemic and many of the time it was not detected in routine test . In such condition on the basis of clinical diagnosis we should treat it .
In my opinion your feature goes in favour of malaria so you should consult a physician in your area and received treatment for malaria along with antibiotics .
feel free to contact if any query.

thanks .
