Is it possible to have a bacterial infection (or spread of infection from skin to else where in body) without a high temperature? i have alternating chills and hot flashes but no temperature. i feel like i have a fever but thermometer reads normal.

Yes: Sounds more like a viral or homonal problem. This can be worked up,by your doc, but we are too limited on the web to get a more accurate diagnosis.
