My husband has Parkinsons, but tonight he said he felt cold then about half an hour later he started to shiver really uncontrollably, he has no temperature, i put him to bed and gave him his slow release madopar and now a paracetamol , the shivering seems to be getting less and his hands and knees are beginning to warm up, is it his Parkinsons or something else, i worry about chest or water infection.
Hello. Thanks for writing to us. The symptoms of your husband are likely to be due to a generalized viral infection or weakness. If this is a single episode then there is nothing much to worry. In case this happens again then consulting his physician for examination is advised. I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
