Fever

History

A 36-year-old man presents to his general practitioner (GP) complaining of a fever and generalized aching in muscles around the back and legs. At first he thought that this was probably influenza but the symptoms have now been present for 9 or 10 days. For 3 days he had diarrhea but this has settled now. He has complained of a sore mouth over the last week or so which has made it difficult to eat, but he has not felt very hungry during this time and thinks he may have lost a few kilograms in weight. Around the time that the symptoms started he noticed a mild erythematous rash over his chest and abdomen but this has faded. He has visited the practice occasionally in the past for minor complaints. He has been to the practice to obtain vaccinations for visits to Vietnam and Thailand over the last 3 years. His last travel abroad was 3 months ago. He smokes 10 cigarettes daily, drinks 20–30 units of alcohol weekly and takes no illicit drugs. He had no other relevant medical or family history. He works as a solicitor. He is single and lives alone. He has had a number of heterosexual and homosexual relationships in the past. Twelve months ago he had an HIV test which was negative.
