She gets lightheaded and that is followed by severe cold and shaking and no matter what you do you can not warm her up. it last for several hours and she feels really drained and tried for the next 24 hours. anything you may know would help she is 79 years old and i would like to take her something that she may be able to ask about when she sees her doctor next.

Hi, it appears that she had some infection, like urinary tract infection, small stone in the urinary tract , retention if urine in the bladder, or eosinophelia.
I advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment. She may need to have tests of blood, urine and U.S.scaning for diagnosis. If she is cured of the infection, she will be cleared of the problem. Thank you.
