It's rat bite fever, not rat fever. Symptoms usually start with pain in the knee or knees. Joint pain is migratory ( it travels from joint to joint) ( knees, elbows, wrists, ankles). Accompanied by a light rash and a fever. Rash disappears in a few days, but fever remains for several days. Extremely debilitating pain!
