A fever is actually a 'good' thing - the only time to worry is if it goes over 104 - or you have a seizure because of it.
It's your body's way of fighting an infection. Which could also mean you have a simple virus to something secondary and need an antibiotic (so if a cold has lingered)
Otherwise take some advil (motrin) and rest and drink a lot of fluids to hydrate yourself and flush it out.

I would make a doctors apt for tomorrow morning. Take some tylonel to reduce fever through the night. The only thing the ER will go is give you tylonel and make you drink alot of water. (which you should be doing anyway) Also, if you take a really hott shower or bath it will help you sweat out the fever. Hope you feel better soon!

Take tylenol and see if it goes down. If it gets up to 104 by all means go to the ER but most likely it will go down within the next 24 hours.
