A member asked:

I have been frequently been getting hot and then get the chills but then it passes and i am fine. this happens at least one a day, usually after lunch?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hot then chills: You may have a fever condition. Check your temperature three times per day for the next week, one of the times should be when you feel hot. If you do have episodes of elevated temperature above 99.6 on a daily basis , contact your doctor for an evaluation.
