What Causes A Low Grade Fever With Abdominal Pain?

I am 19 years old and have had a low grade fever (nothing over 100.0) for 6 weeks. I have been extremely fatigued and have had abdominal pain as well. I went to a doctor who tested me for mono, autoimmune disease, blood clots, blood infections, and malaria (this illness began 2 weeks after i returned from Dominican Republic). All of the tests came back normal. I am at a loss and so is my doctor...I need an answer!

Hi,

I read your query and understand your concern.

Low grade fever with fatigue and abdominal pain could be due to tuberculosis, if your all other tests are negative.

That Republic in endemic for it. So i would suggest that you get your serum ADA (adenosine deaminase) levels to help reach a diagnosis.

Hope i have been helpful.
