[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hepatitis A? Hope they figure out whatever it is soon, OP. There are so many possibilities in India. Glad you are at the hospital and being taken seriously.[/quote]

I had Hep A years ago and don't remember fever and chills as OP is reporting.  Google tells me there can be a low grade fever, which is between 98.6 and 100.4. Since she has a fever of 102, I am thinking it is something else.  Malaria would seem a good guess, though I hope for Op's sake it is not.[/quote]

Between 98.6 and 100.4 is just normal body temperature.  A low grade fever is over 100.4, up to 101.5- 102 or so. [/quote]

Healthline disagrees with you.

Emedicine puts a low grade fever at between 100 t0 101.  Fevers is this range can usually be ignored, but if they persist for days they should be investigated. 101 to 104 is an intermediate grade fever.  Over that is high grade.
