Does Recurring Fever Indicate Low Immunity?
I ve gotten sick four times this year and missed 13 days of work. Each time it starts chills, then fever, then sweating and starts all over again. It leaves me weak and no appetite. It s like the flu systems and keeps me in bed of at least 2-3 days each time. Is a low immune system?

Hi,
It seems that you might be having some chronic infection in the body like urinary tract infection or chronic malaria, if untreated can give rise to repeated attack of low fever with chills.
Go for,
Complete blood checking with TC, DC, ESR, malarial parasites.
Routine urine check up for routine and microscopic.
after report go for proper treatment.
Ok and take care.
