Hello!
Thank you for your question on HCM!
I think that you may have an infection viral or bacterial. Shaking is a sign that your temperature is getting high. When it decreases you start sweating.
I would recommend to consult with your GP, have a blood analysis for infection. Other tests like a chest xray or an urine analysis may be necessary to find out the cause.
You may need to take antibiotics.
Hope to have been of help!
Greetings!
Dr. Aida
