What Causes Recurrent Fever And Chills While Suffering From Diabetes?

I am a diabetic male age 55 and I went to visit a Dr. for constant fevers and chills accompanied by on and off sweating. I also can t get rid of bad headache pain along the forehead and top of my head. I was told that all I have is a viral infection a non bacterial viral infection so just to drink plenty of fluids and take Tylenol for fever but I can t stand the constant headache pain . Is there something else I can do to relieve the pain.

Hello,

Get lab tests as TLC, DLC, ESR, and chest x-ray to know the type of infection. Also, get your blood pressure checked.

For a headache, you may take tablet Paracetamol, and to increase immunity, you can take any multivitamin, and antioxidant combination.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
