Hi there,
Thanks for your query.
From the brief information provided, you may be suffering from Malaria (particularly if you are in India or Asian countries).
Your Uric acid and triglycerides are high, but the good cholesterol (HDL) is low. Hence, you should cut down on your fat intake and will have to start treatment if you have pain in joints (due to gout which is characterized by high uric acid).
I will suggest that you get your thyroid hormones levels estimated, in view of your overweight, raised triglycerides and fever,
Do you have burning in urine or frequent urge to pass urine? I am asking this in view of intermittent fever.
