A member asked:

Can drinking lots of alcohol in the last month cause me excessive sweating and feeling cold?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Alcohol withdrawal: Sweating and feeling cold can be a feeling of alcohol withdrawal. However fever and chills should not be ignored. It would be worthwhile to see a doctor if they persist.
