What Causes Shivering, Difficulty In Breathing And Body Pain?

Hi, today I started getting shivers a bit even though I was in a really warm room for 5 hours. When I got home I felt sick, and now my body really really aches, I have also been feeling like I'm going to throw up.
I also feel like I have difficulty breathing now , although that bit might be from worrying about it I dont know
Thanks for any help

Hello!

Welcome to HCM!

I carefully read your question and would explain that your symptoms seem to be related to an infection (probably viral).

Anxiety can not be excluded too as a possible cause of this clinical scenario.

Have you measured your body temperature? Do you have fever?

I recommend consulting with your attending physician for a careful physical exam and some blood lab tests (complete blood count, PCR, sedimentation rate, CPK, fasting glucose, blood electrolytes) and a chest X ray study.

Further tests may be needed to establish the cause (bacterial blood culture, urine analasis, etc.), especially if you have fever.

You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests.

Hope to have been helpful!

Best wishes,

Dr. Iliri
