What Causes Shivering After Consuming Wine?

My brother just called me and said he was shaking all over and thought it was the flu - he told me had some wine about a half hour ago. I know that he has a heart problem and think the wine may have interacted with a medication he may be on. Why would some be shaking? I told him to go right to the ER. He is in Houston Texas.

Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Based on the description, it appears that your brother could be having viral infection and his symptoms might not be caused due to consumption of wine.
Let him wait for some time and take rest. He can take Tablet.Paracetamol in case his is feeling of having chills and fever.
He can then consult Physician for clinical evaluation and appropriate management.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
Al the best.
