Is It Possible To Get Flu Symptoms Without A Temperature?

Hi, my husband started this morning with a heavy cold, runny nose, pain behind the eyes and generally feeling like a heavy head cold. However, by this evening he is shivering and complaining about pains in his body, but his temperature is normal. Is it possible to have all the symptoms of flu, without a temperature?

Hi,
From history it seems that he might be having viral infection starting with body ache, malaise, tiredness.
He might get fever later on.
Give him rest and give light diet.
Ok and take care.
