Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have iron deficiency anemia. You should take treatment with iron as prescribed by your doctor. But iron deficiency has no relation with fever. Your fever may be due to some viral infection or other cause like malaria & thyphoid. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
