For the past week I have been having random fevers, from low to high, that would break and then come back a few hours later.  I then developed a cough.  I thought I was on the mend for a few days but then the cough got worse.  I called the doctor and they said it was just the end of a bad case of flu.  But today it is the worst its been with me being weak, dizzy and disoriented.  Should I be more assertive for them to take a look at me or is this still just the common flu?
Hi thanks for contacting Chat Doctor. In viral flu associated with viral bronchitis there can be fever and cough ..... But here you are having disorientation also. Suggestive there might be neurological involvement.... There can be meningitis like infection...... Consult physician for health check up.... Your neck rigidity and Kering sign checked for it.... Symptomatic management done along with use of antibiotic....... If congestion more antihistamines given... If needed CT scan might be done or CSF examination done.... Hope your concern solved. Take care. Chat Doctor.
