Ear ache, neck ache, head ache and fever

My 6 year old has been ill for what feels like the longest time.

It started with her complaining of ear ache followed by a lack of energy, falling asleep. The ear ache went on for a week before she developed a fever/temperature. This was followed by neck ache and head ache and loss of hearing.

I took her to the doctors who gave me drops for her ear, to get rid of a wax build up, there was no infection. He said that it was just a virus. A week and a half later and she is still unwell, although her hearing is back. She has had a fever/temperature for at least 11 days now. It comes and go's. Daytime she seems to be fine until late afternoon/evening.

Just when I think she's getting better the fever and neck ache return.

She had a blood test today.

Anyone have any ideas of what this could be. I must add that no-one else in the household has caught this supposed virus.

I'm going to take her back to the doctors tomorrow... if i can get an appointment.

I'm so worried.
