Thanks Mister Micawber for the warm welcome.

Yes the person is still having fever, could it be right in one sentence/statement as follow

1. I have fever since yesterday (is this correct?)
2. I have had fever since yesterday (this would definitely be correct)

Yes, but natives make the noun countable: 'a fever'.
