Chest pain, shivering, fever

[AVA1977]

I am 31, male. I am having this problem from last 6 months. It goes like this. It will start with slight chest pain, feels like stomach is filled with gas after ~1hr shivering will start followed by fever. this will only last for 3 to 4 hrs and will be normal after that. This started 6 months back. it repeated after 2 to 3 weeks later. The last one happened yesterday and it was little bit serious. After chest pain I fell unconscious for about 1 minute. After that shivering started followed by fever. After 4 hrs every thing was normal. I have done blood test 2 months back. Every thing was normal at that time. Can any one put some light on my problem or guide me what test I can do?

Hi

Have you done any test till for this? If doctors have found some thing let me also know about it. I have done 24hr ECG (Holter Monitor), Blood, Urine, Head MRI, Chest XRay, Stomach echogram and chest echogram test. But nothing was found ubnormal. I am also not feeling well to have these symptoms undetected..

Hope every thing will be normal ..

I'm a 26 year old woman and been having exactly the same symptoms. It's certainly not normal I don't feel well at all

Hi,

Honestly speaking, I have never come across a patient with similar symptoms. I can’t think of an infectious cause as the fever and symptoms remit themselves after a few hours. Shivering could occur due to severe pain. I do not think you need to worry much if an x-ray of the chest and maybe an ECG is normal.

I do not think you need any further tests.

I hope that helped. Please do keep me posted.
