You : You are right in being concerned about anxiety. Headaches are a very common symptom of anxiety. The shivering you described along with an inabilty to sleep can also be attributed to anxiety. Your husband would benefit from a mental health evaluation. His primary care doctor should be able to refer him. If anxiety is deemed the cause there are multiple treatment options that can help manage this issue. Good luck.

Sleep test: All of your symptoms may indicated sleep problems that can be life shortening or life threatening. The only way to know if there are serious problems is with an overnight sleep test. I encourage you to seek help.
