I Have A Terrible Sensation Of Freezing (not Shaking Chills--but

Posted on Thu, 4 Oct 2018

Question: I have a terrible sensation of freezing (not shaking chills--but cold to the core), oral temp from 97-99.5, terrible night sweats, abdominal pain. Several months ago, after a home-cooked meal of bison, mushrooms, and onions several months ago, I developed gastritis that moved to the appendix area. However, the resolved. Now, two months later, the abdominal symptoms are back, but less severe, but now I have the freezing sensation and the terrible night sweats (again, no fever) that I didn't have before. I do live in an area with lots of tick-transmitted diseases. Any thoughts?
