Did you ever find the answer to this issue?

I have similar symptoms. I have been checking constantly (and went to the doctors) but I have no fever. I do have however continued bouts of severe chills, so bad that even with 4 or 5 layers on, a ski coat, hat and the heater going (its the middle of summer); I am shaking & shivering uncontrollably with my teeth clattering away, it sometimes feels like someone is hitting me with millions of pins on my back and arms.

Other times I have a very rapid heart beats and slight feelings of deliria.

My throat is very sore and swollen, it is painful to swallow and the glands under my jaw are sensitive.

This all came on very rapidly, the first morning I felt a little unwell, felt like I was getting a cold by lunch and had the above symptoms by tea.

The doctor has prescribed a week's course of penicillin, and I am taking Paracetamol and ibuprofen which seem to reduce the chills. But the symptoms aren't reducing.

I am just a little worried it could be something more severe? We live in the UK and have a dog, which we take for walks in a wood with deer in it, I got back from a holiday in Morocco two weeks ago, and I had blocked ears which I have been (a little over zealously) poring lots of ear drops (Otex) into. Other than that I cant seem to see what else could have caused it?

I have been in good health most of my life, the only issue I have had was a bout of depression a few year ago.


This discussion is related to constant feeling of chilliness  without fever.
