HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, febrile condition up to 22 days is very unlikely and if it so then it needs several investigations, first complete temperature chart of every two hours, endocrine test, hormone profile test, MRI of whole body, if the body temperature go above 100 F then it need to be given "Acetaminophen" hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
