Question : I am in mexico, been drinking and sunning with friends for a week. At dinner I began to get chills. went home and chills go worse, then super high fever I'm guessing 104 very high . I was sweating profusely and then had uncontrollable chills. I was once on 10 million units of interferon for trial for hep c and felt just like that. I ached everywhere even my eyelids. Couldn't sleep at at. Then in the morning it subsided and though sick I felt better. Then next night at dinner I got severe chills and uncontrollable shaking. Woke next morning better but sill shaky. Third day I'm OK. I had a liver transplant 14 years ago if that is relevant.

THis sounds like food poisoning!

Hi,

Your information is suggestive of food poisoning. I will encourage you to inspect where you eat. Between, changing the restaurant would help you.

In all, this is food poisoning. Change the restaurant and better still, prepare your meals. I wish you well.
