Flu Symptoms, Headache With Vertigo, Cold, Profuse Sweating. What Is Wrong?

hi

I got a flue like headache with a vertigo feeling and a pain in my eyeballs last night (no other flue symptems). I feld cold even whilst having a hot shower and couldn't warm up, I woke up in the middle of the night and had sweated so badly my bed and pillow were wet.
Still the same feeling in my head today 24 hours after but I don't feel cold any more.

I would really appreciate any advice you could give on whats wrong with me and how to fix it?

Hi,

Possible causes of your flue-like symptoms could be related to influenza. However, you are saying you have profuse sweating, which could be related to infections caused by bites or stings or some insects (spider, tick,etc).

You should be checked by a physician as soon as possible and to run some blood work.

Hope it helped!
