supportive care

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and i understand your concern. Rigors and chills with nausea for laat 60 minutes is acute infection. Acute gastroenteritis aka stomach flu, urinary tract infection etc can cause it. Use of lorazepam i suppose is for anxiety as that can cause shaking and chills too.
No worries just take her to ER and they will supportively care the symptoms.
I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and dont forget to close the discussion please.
