What Could Cause Chills But No Fever?

I take methotrexatexate and hydroxychloroquine for RA. Started in Feb.2014. June 21 I had a fever of 100, and severe chills for a day and all night. Wed. June 25 I was cold, shivering, and very hot to the touch, but no fever registered on thermometer. This lasted all night, and all Thursday, and when I went to bed the heat from my body finally subsided at 4am, when I broke out into a cold sweat. I still have periodic chills today and the temp. is 75. I also suffer from fibromyalgia.

HI
Well come to HCM
If this long last for days then this would required routine blood test to rule out possibility of any infection, if blood test turned negative then this could be some functional condition and may not need any treatment but this would be fine soon, as you keep the stress low, hope this information helps, have a nice day.
