What Is Brucellosis?
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
5. Fever
As already mentioned, Brucellosis is a disease that is often overlooked for being the flu. This is because symptoms include fever which is so often caused by the presence of the influenza virus. Where there is a fever, chills are often not far away, and the patient can also experience sweats.
Another symptom that makes the condition so often mistaken for the flu is aching muscles and joints, while the patient will also sometimes experience back pain. Even if you do suspect an illness is down to something like the flu, you should still see a doctor if the symptoms persist or if they become severe.
