What Causes Recurrent Fever And Joint Ache?

Hello Doctor. I have had an on-again, off-again fever for the past week or so. I feel awful one evening and fine again in the morning and for few days thereafter and then my symptoms return. I have mild body aches, more joint pain than muscle. I have been fatigued but not short of breath. I have also been light-headed but not consistently. I seem to be able to function in short bursts of energy.
