What Causes Shivering?
I m shaking in my house and it is relatively warm. On my way home I drank a Lucozade Carribean Crush standard sized and it felt fine whilst I was walking but when I got into my house I started shivering, what could have caused this? Lucozade is the only thing I can think of, other than that I currently have a Stomach Virus and was prescribed penicillin two days ago

Hello,
I understand your concern.
Maybe it's not only because of Lucozade, the other things that may cause your complains are:
1. Influenza
2. Stomach flu or viral gastroenteritis
3. Urinary tract infection
You can do these following tips:
1. Drink lots of fluids
2. Avoid sweet drinks, soda, or coffee
3. Get plenty of rest
4. Take Paracetamol if needed.
You can also measure your body temperature using a thermometer at night. Normal body temperature is below 100°F (37.7°C).
Consult a doctor if:
1. You have a high fever (above 100 degrees)
2. You have a cough, shortness of breath
3. You experience pain during urination or urinate more frequent
4. You have a stiff neck
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Nurul Falah
