What Causes Nausea And Vomiting When Body Temperature Is Low?
Brief Answer:
Flu
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for contacting HCM with your health care concerns
Your husband has been feeling ill and having nausea and vomiting and a low temperature. This is probably a viral illness. Not everyone who gets a virus has a high temperature some people will actually have a lower temperature. This is very common and nothing to be concerned about. the most important thing is that he maintain good hydration. He should be drinking clear liquids. If he becomes dehydrated he could have low blood pressure and need IV fluids to replace the lost fluids. I recommend he use a slightly watered down gatoraid drink or other sports drinks. They have all the important electrolytes but they need to be watered down because it is a little high in the minerals and electrolytes.
In summary
1. Flu or other viral illness
2. Low temperature normal
3. Replace all fluids and prevent dehydration
4. Use a watered down sports drink for electrolytes
