Fever Spikes after covid vaccination?

About 2 weeks after my second covid shot, I developed spiking fevers (103F) which did not go away and took me to the ER upon advice of my oncologist. They kept me fist for observation but admitted me for 6 days. No infection found, so could only be the CLL/SLL. I was on a4-week break from Imbruvica due to accumulation off too many side effects (vision, hearing, muscles, bone pain, etc.). Did anyone also develop fever spikes? Antibiotics did not work. Finally, it subsided aided by steroids. - Anybody with similar experiences.? Just to see if a connection to vaccination is even feasible?

I had fever spiked after stopping Imbruvica but it happened after two days of stopping Imbruvica. Steroid is the right treatment for Imbruvica withdrawal reactions.I am not sure about the vaccine role in this case.

Thank you very much for responding, Shazie. I hope that all is well with you now, and you on a treatment that works for you.

I had illness related symptoms two weeks after second dose of vaccination. The doctors where very clear that this was too late and very very unlikely to be related to vaccination. Two main avenues to check was infection or progressing illness.

Thank you very for your reply. This pretty much confirms the conclusion they reached in my case as well. - Hope you are well by now!
