A member asked:

Hello, my brother has cold skin with sweating , vomiting and shivering. he complained of headache and blurred vision.

Sepsis: It appears your brother has sepsis, or at the very least, an active infection. Sepsis + headache + blurry vision + vomiting would make me concerned about the possibility of meningitis, and would recommend urgent medical care.
