Fever, severe headache, chills and night sweats
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?
am 30, since 2-3weeks ago when i urinate, i feel pain in the tract, amazingly ma urine is ever brown even when i drink a lot of water, my urge for sex as gone low and it worries my family. Lately am sweating at night too much. Have checked ma docter and told me its anxiety. I need help please.
I was diagnosed with Arnold chiari malformation 1 when i turned 30 after haveing heart failure my health went down hill fast. But I would ask the neuro if your mri showed anything with your cerebral tonsles falling below foram magnum ( sorry about spelling) or Google it. Good luck I had awful headaches and sharp pains and so many other symptoms since basically my brain was pushing on my spinal cord which my fluids couldn't flow right. I had brain surgery about year and half ago which helped for awhile unfortunately living with chiari isn't pleasant a lot of the time. I truely understand when u say your quality of living is affected. I feel mine was taken. I hope u figure it all out good luck.
I have had the same exact symptoms now on and off for two weeks. The doc ran blood work and it says nothing is wrong with me. My last fever was two days ago and it got up to 103. Has anyone's doc figured out what they had or they just contributed it to a weird virus??? No one else around me has gotten sick so I have to think it's not a virus. If anyone got a diagnosis I am so interested to know what it was!-NIk
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?
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. =)

My son has had a severe headache for approx. 6 days, he has chills and sweats, but no fever. He feels somewhat better after taking Tylenol for sinus but after the 4 hour time lapse, the symptoms are back as severe as ever. Should I be taking him to emergency, he is 22 years old.
What if you say everything your saying is true , fever at night feels very hot and sweat and has these bad headache like your brain is gonna pop, and sore throat that hurts when you cough . What does that signifiy ? Im scared to even think about if it's something bad. Can someone explan this?
Fever and weakness when laying or sitting, cold sweats when up moving around. Been going on for 4 days. Any ideas?
I have had the worst headache of my life my neck is stiff and hurts as well.i am super sensitive to light and have been exhausted. i have had some fever. I went to the ER they said my cat scan and blood work is okay I have also been on Clarithromycin for 4 days now. the doctor in the ER said last night that if im not better in a few days to come back. So far its 24 hrs later and i do not feel better at all. What can this be?
My husband has the same type thing going on that the two of you have mentioned. It started about a week and a half ago with feeling really lethargic, headaches, neck pain and just bad all over. He would feel better during the day but around 3-4 he would start going down hill. He had crazy chills and night sweats too. Now, as of last night, he has started with a fever in the middle of the night of around 102. He stays so tired too. Not sure if we should find a doc or if it will just go away but I am starting to worry. How are you feeling?

I have been sick for over three weeks. Started with a severe headache and neck pain. I am good during the day, however around 3pm I come home and crash. I get chills and night sweats, but not every day. I would be interested if others have this.

I have been feeling poorly for a week to ten days. Off and on I get a fever, then it goes away. I have experienced night sweats, as though my fever has broken. I have had very bad headaches the last two days. I am tired, sleeping moe than I normally do. I heard there is a virus going aroung that can last up to three weeks. Has anyone heard this and if I feel this way, do I dare get a flu shot? S.B.
I am 42. I have been off work for 2 months for lower back pain. I have been to the doctor and had I think every test possible. MRI, CAT SCAN, BoneScan, Myelogram and shot in my lower back. Every test except the MRI showed 3 buldging disks, are normal or didnt work. Also had PT for 2 months. I have night sweats and lower back pain and muscle spasms in my back and legs that it makes me jump at night when I'm trying to sleep. Any suggestions? The docs says no reason for the lower back pain????
I was on the road for work when my assistant had several episodes of the same "post-coital headaches". He was in his early 20s, and described it as the worst pain he'd ever endured, worse than migraines. The headaches were triggered after orgasm. (I only learned this later.) He took himself into the emergency room after the second or third bout. They sent him away with some pain killer and he was back again before the night was through. Luckily this happened during our last few days on the road.
Anyway, to sum it up, I was debriefing with my boss after coming in off the road, and it turns out HE had gone through the same thing a few years earlier, whilst in his late 40s. In the end both guys found relief through chiropractic treatments, and both of their chiropractors reported having had similar cases before. My understanding is that these spasms were being triggered by a pinched nerve.
So, here's secondhand evidence repeating the success of one earlier poster. From my personal experience (with back issues), I recommend seeking out a traditional practicing D.O. (doctor of Osteopathy)--they are well-rounded doctors with a wider breadth of knowledge than chiropractors. (As I understand it) chiropractic spun off from Osteopathy. Your health insurance is also more likely to cover a D.O. The traditional part is key though. The D.O. general practitioner may be more like any M.D. and emphasize less the skeletal adjustments. Whomever you see, do your homework on them if you have the luxury of choice, and good luck.
