What Causes Fever And Headache In A Child?

Hi. My husband and I just found out that our adopted special needs 11 yr old son is heterozygous. He suffers from the fevers and headaches along with his other many special needs. Noone will really explain what this is in my language and when we looked it up online the info was very overwhelming and terrifying!! Now they want to do a blood genetics test. Can you please please please tell me exactly what this is?
