Answer:
Yes there are lots of difference infections which can result in a high fever. Aches and pains combined with a temperature is most likely the result of an viral infection. Keep an eye of your temperature, take paracetamol which will reduce it and help with any pain. Push fluid intake and get rest.

If your symptoms get any worse then contact NHS Direct on 0845 4647 or contact your GP out of hours service.

Answer:
Yes, you can get an infection that makes you really sick. Yes, the infection can spread and cause a fever. Since you've already arranged a stay at the hospital, I suggest resting and letting them take care of it. They’ll probably diagnose the particular infection and prescribe an antibiotic.
