Brief Answer:
An infection is a strong possibility.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.

I have read your question and understand your concerns.

If you experienced fever (mild fever too), an infection may be the culprit.

It could be an urinary tract infection, an upper respiratory pathways viral infection etc.

Another possibility is low thyroid gland function.

It is necessary to get evaluated by your primary care Doctor about these conditions and to have proper tests to confirm or exclude them.

Hope you found the answer helpful.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Kind regards.
