Chills

Posted by strawnkg @strawnkg, Feb 20, 2023

I have chills in the afternoon that last for hours. Also have warm, flush face. Anyone else experience?

Hi @strawnkg, Welcome to Connect. I've had similar symptoms before when I was sick with the flu and had a fever. Here's some information from Mayo Clinic that may be helpful:

"Depending on what's causing a fever, other fever signs and symptoms may include: Sweating; Chills and shivering; Headache; Muscle aches ..."

How long have you had these symptoms? Have you seen a doctor yet?

I had terrible chills every day just before I discovered I had hypothyroidism. I also had aching all over, and was fatigued. Have you had your thyroid checked recently?
