Fever, severe headache, chills and night sweats

[Karen B.]

My husband has had fever of around 102 degrees, severe headache, chills and night sweats.  This has been going on for a week.  He has had blood tests, urine tested, head and chest x-rays, cat scan and spinal tap.  Nothing can be found.  The doctors say it is a severe viral syndrome that could last 10 to 14 days.  He has lost 10 pounds and is very weak and unable to stay up for very long.  He has not been able to go to work for the last 4 days.  Is there any other diagnosis for this?  He is generally a very, very healthy man.  Are there any other test to be ran?

My husband gets chills,then really bad nightsweats along with a bad headache. He just does not feel well. These symptoms always show up at night. He's been to the doc 3 times now. His tests all come back negative. So he is put on prednisone and antibiotics. He feels better and then a month or 2 later it comes back......

I am 21 years old, very healthy, no possible chance of ANY STD of any kind!! I have been having very bad headaches for 4 days now...I have a constant pain all day and night, and its at the very top of my head, favoring the Right side, feels like its deep inside my head I cannot get away from it!! 2 nights ago it hit me and pain in my head was so excruciating all i coudl do was lay and cry and squeeze my head.....ALso, My neck is soo sore and stiff and I can barely move my head around. Towards the evening I start getting the "chills" and a lowgrade fever and after I go to sleep I get night sweats (about 3 times a ngiht) it's not my fever breaking though..I worry about my daughter getting this from me she's 15 months old..I have a stressful job and full tiem college at night, could very possible be from stress, but I don't believe that's what it really is..I know my body and this is not normal..

My husband has the same exact symptoms your son is having...we're on day 6.  He is 41 but had a stroke last year and took him to the ER...thankfully the CT scan and lumbar puncture showed no brain bleed or meningitis but the headaches are still really bad.  When he's not on pain killers it's a 9 on pain scale of 1-10.  Anyone else have a clue?  We've done an MRI to double check no brain bleed....Could it be a BAD virus?

So drink lots and lots and LOTS of water before going to sleep.

Based on my observation as a panic attackee myself, panick attacks are probably linked to how much sodium there is in a person's bloodstream, and not drinking adequate water to hydrate the body enough.  I've never had a panic attack up until that night I had way too much Sushi smothered generously in soy sauce, I woke up shorty after falling asleep with heightened senses, clinching my left breast like I'm moments from death.... I then instinctively breathed heavily to cope with the attack and that allowed me to take it easy and endure the attack alongside having extreme chills from head to foot, as in I'm shaking ecstatically.  4 mins. into the attack, I'm still feeling like crap and all sorts of images in my brain are popping left and right. My mom then took notice that I was gasping for air, and she immediately made me drink REALLY HOT WATER... which subsequently triggered a tingling sensation throughout my whole body, and then viola.... no more shaking... blood pressure going down... and brain images subsiding.  The body's secondary reaction then to getting hydrated with really tongue-burning hot water, are urination and pooping, which I think is the body's way of getting rid of the excess sodium in it.  So my conclusion is that, the overdose on Soy Sauce triggered my very first panic attack, and I've been having less serious panic attacks every now and then, less serious because I've learned how to cope with it when it occurs.  The funny thing was... the 2nd time I've had it, I was staring at our electric fan as I was gasping for air, believe it or not all of the sudden our electric fan splintered into pieces!  Panic attack MIGHT unlock your hidden telekinetic abilities.  This is a real interesting subject scientists might want to look into. =)
