What Causes Body Chills And Severe Fatigue?

Hi there! I have a question... what can cause you to feel cold and start to shake uncontrollably for a period of 10-15 minutes? And mind you it can just happen without warning. And the shaking is to the point that my muscles hurt and I feel exhausted afterwards.

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Viral infection with influenza virus can cause cold with similar type of Shivering and fatigue.
So drink plenty of fluids orally and keep yourself hydrated.
Do steam inhalation and warm water gargles 5-6 times a day.
Take levocetrizine and paracetamol combination twice daily.
You will mostly improve with all these in 5 days.
If not improving then consult doctor.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
