For over a week now I have had a horrible fever. At first I thought it would go away with bed rest and liquids and some thermaflu but it didn't. Now It seems to be hit me more in the afternoon (anytime after 3pm) until whenever I wake up. Yesterday it was at 103 degrees. I'll go from really warm fever when i'm sitting or laying to freezing and shaking when I get up for awhile. Its really annoying. I also have a cough but it feels like no flem most of the time and it won't go away either. Any ideas????

Sounds like you could have pneumonia. You definitely should see a doctor since your home treatment hasn't been successful.
Hope you'll feel better soon.

When to seek medical advice
If you think you may have pneumonia, don't hesitate to get medical care. Serious pneumonia can be life-threatening. See your doctor right away if you have a persistent cough, shortness of breath, chest pain that fluctuates with your breathing (pleurisy), an unexplained fever — especially a lasting fever of 102 F or higher along with chills and sweats — or if you suddenly feel worse after a cold or the flu.

You need to see the Doctor. A week with that high of a temperature in an adult is BAD..
All temperatures go up late in the afternoons. The purpose of a temperature is because your body is fighting off sickness.

Don't be stupid. Go see a Dr. This could be the sign of something serious. It probably is just the flu, but there are many other things that can present with these type of symptoms.
