Hello
You didn't mention the duration of this low grade fever.
Such type of fever may be due to these possibilities , these include:
1 Typhoid fever , diagnosis can be confirmed by Widal or serology test.
2 Tuberculosis , diagnosis can be confirmed by pcr , tuberculin test with blood for CBC , ES R .
3 Hepatitis , is another most common cause of such symptoms . Diagnosis can be confirmed by HBASG for A , B C E .
However, it is very difficult to establish any diagnosis with these symptoms ,so physical examination is also important so consult a physician and get his opinion as advised.
Good luck.
