What Could Cause Extreme Chills, Fever And Intolerable Headache That Last About 45 Minutes To An Hour?

Numerous time (4-5) over the past three to four weeks I have suddenly developed extreme chills, fever and intolerable headache that last about 45 minutes to an hour and then goes away and I feel fine until it happens the next time. I can think of nothing I am doing that could be causing this to occur and am becoming concerned that something serious may be going on with my health. Any ideas?
