Fever with headache and body ache
Fever since yesterday morning. Increased from 100F to 103 by 12pm. Have been taking DOLO 650 to curb the fever (in every 5-6 hours) since yesterday afternoon, but fever comes down only for couple hours, and then starts increasing.
Note: Got myself tested at a designated Covid centre and awaiting the results by today evening, although my sense of smell and taste is okay as of now.

It would be helpful if you rewrite the question with any symptoms apart from fever that are present. Covid doesnt always present with deranged smell sensation. You did the right thing in doing covid test and I suppose you are practicing self isolation irrespective of the test results.

Any other symptoms like cough, difficulty in breathing? Fever can be because of any infection. Good that you got tested for COVID but it could be too early to get accurate result
Next Steps
Get tested for dengue and malaria also and also get CBP, CUE done. And repeat COVID test after a week
