Shaking uncontrollably

[MummaPI]

Please can someone calm me down. I went to bed and then suddenly starting shaking. My whole body, I also felt cold. It was terrifying. It came and when 3 times in about 15 minutes. I'd had a few drinks this evening and wondered if it could be that. If anyone can offer any advice I would really appreciate it thanks.

It sounds like you had a couple of seizures (you can be lucid throughout). As they were your first I would definitely go to hospital. Do you have someone who can drive you?

Did you take your temperature?

Could be a nerve thing or a temperature.

No-one could really advise you

I shake when im in pain or when i vomit

Call 119 if this is your first seizure. Important to seek advice tonight and be checked over if necessary.

Could be a panic attack

Could you move

Salty meant 111 not 119

length of seizure start to finish is important to note. 15 minutes is quite a long time so 119 may want to send an ambulance

Thankyou yellow 111

Yes I could move, not sure about a seizure. I didn't take my temperature

How do you feel now?

I managed to get to sleep but now awake and feel panicky

With the feeling cold and the shaking it sounds like rigors.
I had them after my covid vaccination. My temperature was high.

Maybe try 111 online to put your mind at rest.

It felt like a panic attack but like nothing I've had before. I'm wondering if its the alcohol I had. I'm scared it could be seizures

How do you feel other than that? Shaking was one of my 1st covid symptoms, coupled with sweating and chills at the same time (as well as a sore throat).

I've got a bit of an upset stomach. I do lateral flow twice a week as I work in a school so hoping that would have picked up covid. I do appreciate you all talking to me. My heat rate is slightly up now and then but that's not unusual since the perimenopause. I have my period at the moment.

I’ve had rigors before op and it’s a horrendous feeling. Have you checked your temp again? Unless your heart rate is over 100 when you’re at rest try not to worry. 🤗 and 💐

Do you use tampons?

You could have an infection, you could need your thyroid tested. I think you need to see a doctor ASAP with these symptoms.

Morning everyone,
Thank you all for replying. The weird thing is I didnt feel ill at all. My BP was 85bpm just felt like it was beating out of my chest. Ill check my temp now. I do use tampons. I had blood tests about 6 weeks ago and thyroid ok.
Other than tired I feel OK today. Its scared me though.

Your BP is two numbers , not one, do you mean your pulse was 85 ? If so, that’s normal for me.

No temperature

Oh yes sorry, I meant my pulse.

Obviously need to not have a drink tonight and do some relaxation things before bed. Try not to overthink it or you will get anxious.

I agree with others that it sounds like a rigor. I get these whenever I have an infection. I also get them if my body has had a ‘trauma’ (after tooth extraction, after planned csec).

They are horrible! I have to go to bed and just wait for it to pass (while covered with every blanket in the house!)

Sometimes I don’t know I’ve even got an infection until I have a rigor. Twice I’ve had one and gone to bed. Woken up feeling fine, but with the start of a UTI.
