Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe, it appears to be due to malaria, if shivering is in a gap of 24, or 48 hours. If irregular may be due to the urinary tract infection, throat infection, etc.
I advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment .
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
