@Aluzky shut up

Anybody here shaking uncontrollably and feels cold even though you're house isn't cold?
How are you now?
Yes ! This happened to me and I was like what’s is going on 😭 & I felt like lazy or like tired and I was just ugh it sucks 😔
Alexis Gallegos omgg samee
I feel so how but I'm shivering
@@alexisgallegos319 yessss...
I have no fever and it's not that cold in d house too..it's just 20 degrees...
I feel like I will pass out at times 😭...
Don't know wat to do
I wish that lady would have shut up & let him talk
I have a major fever and her voice made it worse LOL
true....
women after all have to yak yak....
Exactly.
@@Guy-cs8yj lmao
I know. She is such an irritant. The sound of her voice is like nails on a chalkboard.
Currently freezing but sweating at the same time. My shirt got really wet from sweat while I had a tank top underneath so you know it’s real. Slept and woke up an hour later to my blanket being wet as well from sweating but I was still freezing cold and there’s a vent blowing heat right above me. This is horrible.
A week later and now I know I had covid
@@blipblop2483 how r u now
@@rahul11bhat I’m fine now. My little brothers didn’t feel it when they had it, my mom lost her smell and got it back but only felt sick for 4 days. Step dad didn’t get it at all.
Glad you & your family are doing well.
I feel you! God bless you. 🙏🏽

Hi
Stop interrupting the doctor while he's explaining. Damn!
She interrupts everyone, that is why I do not watch her show.
Ikr so fucking annoying
"it probably knows my sister, she likes it hot"
It's cause she's attracted to him look how she looks at him lol
I agree. I kept thinking, I wish she would shut up and just let the doctor to explain it.
The human body is amazing
This is awful
@@laurahano2587 What is?
@@toknowhim2242 fever and chills. Finally made it to the other side after 4 days
@@laurahano2587 ah ok, your sick yourself. I thought you were talking about the video lol
I really thought I was going to pass out from shaking too hard and you’re telling it’s just because my brain thinks I’m too COLD ??? Omg 💔😭🤚🏽
I was close to phoning an ambulance last night I was shivering uncontrollably
@@deans0209 same that is happening to me now , like i can't seriously move .. and the shakes became hurtful since my muscles feels weak also
@@evanshadow2680
are you okay now?
Started shivering last night with horrible chills. Woke up with the worst headache and body aches I've ever had and am sweating and freezing at the same time. Feeling horrible!!
That's me right now. My head hurt my body is aching and I have chills. I have pointy chills also.😢
Just had one of the worst nights of my life. It's winter so I thought I was just cold last night when I couldn't stop shaking for two hours after putting on sweat clothes and extra blankets. That was until I woke up this morning feeling hot and aching with a severe headache from a fever. Now Tylenol and ibuprofen is finally kicking in and I'm drenched in sweat and still feeling ehh but not like I'm on the verge of death like last night and this morning at least.
You'll be ok. Real men go to work sick.
im literally sharing the exact same experience with you
@@maximbodnar3906 I hope you get better soon. I caught covid somehow. Really frustrated since I worked through the whole pandemic didn't get it and still took precautions afterwards and now I come down with it. I just hope it gets better instead of worse. Day 2 out when my fever breaks+2!
@@TJ45223 fck the work man..noonea cares about u me all the workers..another worker will replace u but for u noone gives a fck man..get well
Same, I just caught covid on 4th of July, 2.5 years after the start of the pandemic. Lol. Fever + chills for 2 nights straight + bizarre fever dreams.
My son's first week of daycare he got sick with rhinovirus and passed it to me. It's labeled as the common cold, but it WHOOPED my ass. Within 12 hours onset of symptoms, I had 103.8 fever and I literally had 2 sheets and 4 throw blankets on top of me. It took me forever to warm up. I finally fell asleep and then my body woke me up because it was being smothered. What a ride in hell! I always know I'm coming down with a fever because the chills always start in my lower back and butt.
Anyone else feel like vomiting but can’t actually vomit?
ME rn
yes, any time i eat food i feel like I'm going to throw up but i never do
Thats nausea
Or acid reflux, or hernia, or diverticulosis. However, let’s hope it’s none of these
Yes
Praise God we are so wonderfully made
God😂😂
Sanskar Baral that’s not funny, who you gonna praise? Man? Foh
Gabriel Gonzalez of course u idiot. People that actually changed the world for good. The fact that u are even using the phone and the network is possible because of man. Nicola Tesla, Newton, Bill Gates, Babbage, Einstein, Hawkins those are the guys to name a few that deserve the praise. U guys who believe in an imaginary man in the sky are ignorant fools and someone who is afraid to accept the truth. Man created god not the other way round in the agricultural era when they finally moved out of the jungle and savannahs to live in a group. Before there were groups with few members and hunted together and it was also easy to look after others actions. But then in the agricultural era people lived in greater numbers and it was hard to manage people as they would do something bad and no one would notice. Then there was this idea to spread the news of the ever present god so people would feel someone is watching. Less did the know that their lie to make people good in long term will stick like a parasite and causing cancer to the world in future. If u look the data after the industrial revolution and after the golden age of science and technology numbers of believers are decreasing day by day in more and more numbers. Cause people are now educated and know the truth. Imagine after 400 500 years when science will rise even more when technology will be way advanced than what it already is. The whole world in majority will be believe in science. And religion may still be there as moral schools but the bull shit of god will no longer be a thing.
Which God? I hail to 3 out of 2,000 gods
MIKES T3CH well that’s where you’ll be highly disappointed.
There’s only ONE GOD.
All others are false, the Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaten tried to crumble all other Gods in place of worship to the one divine God Yahweh.
Same thing was Quetzalcoatl, he was the manifesting Jesus that came to the Mayans to throw away the other Gods.
It’s all the same one divine entity.
The Alpha and Omega.
The Narcos of Mexico worship the Black Death and many false Gods, don’t be like them, because in the end, everything will crumble and one will remain as he has since the beginning. That’s how it will be.
anyone else getting chills and watching this to make it go away?
Yea kinda works this flu ain’t no joke
Me 😂 I hate it here
Yes
Same
Whenever I get a fever, I'm looking forward to the moment when I sweat like I've just jumped into a pool. Because at that point the fever usually stops and I start feeling better. (Sometimes it takes 2-3 "sweat sessions" before the fever stops... but it's alwaysa big relief). However, that might only work because I'm still young.
i get that when i wake up in the morning and just see me soaking wet with sweat and all the sudden i feel great again
Keeping the fever longer to do what it has to do is better if you can sustain it. If you break it too early it'll keep coming back cause it's not done fighting.
imagine ...this is probably what drug addicts go through (often) if they didnt get their fix. Awful.
im having a fever right now ( not due drugs haha ) and everytime i start feeling kinda warm, i make sure to even put on another hoodie an drink some tea, to make the body heat up as fast and as much as possible. With this i always noticed i have fewer sweat sessions!
Haha when they haven't had their fix your a total fanny for that , addiction is AN ILLNESS,but a think your a bit soft in the head to realise that ,if you went cold turkey you would probably jump off a roof not a thing to joke about I help addicts and there's always trauma in there life to lead them on that path ,but HAHA a hope to god you never have to deal with it or even a loved one it's not funny it's about as funny as you
The headache is so bad but the chills were the worst I kept waking up every 2-4 hours when sleeping and just wanted to go back to normal
Sick explanation right there! Clear and precise!
Now I am having chills dok, someone must have set my hypothalamus higher.. 🥶🥶🥶
Perfect explanation 👌
Have a fever with a mind splitting headache currently. Aspirin is doing wonders right now in helping to alleviate the headache🤒
Same 😭
The body is so cool. Rachel is annoying for interrupting
It's like there's a timer indicating she needs to speak again before he's even done a sentence.
I keep feeling hot and cold my headache goes away then comes back , dry mouth only when the headache kicks in.I showered with cold water the water would still feel warm here and there. All these symptoms showed up after I woke up. But I instantly felt the headache when I was waking up. I was super sweaty and my bed was wet with sweat
Me too I’m dealing with that now
@@jackbilly6745 hope u feel better it sucks
Oh yea I definitely got it then because this was the identical
@@BethalMiles I hope you feel better
My body is boiling but I'm shivering under my blanket with a runny nose
Who else is watching this while having a fever
Freezing to death, burning to death. Bone crushing pain.
Me too
Did you recover?
Amazing explanation. I’m going back and forth between super cold and super hot and sweating
Same, plus I can’t move. I have been off work five days. Hang in there . Rest and drink water
I LOVE Dr Ian Smith! He’s a PHENOMENAL doctor!
Watching this after waking up sore from shivering and hearing up.
Clearly explained. Thanks doc.
I had to sleep on my dryer last night! Still chills!😩
Haha so sorry for your dryer experience. I'll keep that option in mind.
I’m hot and cold at the same time
like I’m under a huge blanket but it’s too hot and when I remove the blanket I’m so freezing
Also like my breathing is hot (if that makes sense) like the air that I breath out is like SUPER hot and my chest is really tight 😭
Why these talk shows have so many women as audience....a genuine questions
Women find these show more interesting than males, same reason why a sport talk would have more male audiences.
Im going thru this right now and it feels like im going to die
@Ahad Sharif it fells horrible and it lasted for more than an hour
Watching this while sick.
Got the same feeling after my first covid shot
🐑
@@petrolo72 🤨
Because they are injecting a dead virus in your body so feeling a fever is very common from the shot
Felt like this earlier took Tylenol and drank warm tea I felt better soon after
Feel deathly sick right now and currently have a fever . Been sick for 5 days straight.
@@kiloxoxo847 weak immune system
@@Acanofalconpunch you have no idea
@James BigBigBigBoss it’s probably not corona, I don’t think you can wash that away in the shower. 😂
@@kiloxoxo847 how u straight my boy
Yeah but why would you want to take acetaminophen to lower your temperature if your body is trying to raise it to kill off a bacteria or virus? 🤔
Like he said, only something's die in the heat so it's not full proof but the body does it anyways because it doesn't know if you have staph or e.coli all it knows is intruder dead.
your organs and nerves can get damaged if your body stays at a high temperature (103-104 celcius) or stays hot for a long time
Good question. Actually, you should only take medicine if you have a high grade fever. Most of the time, 100-101 is manageable and is best left untreated so your body can use it purposefully. However, if it doesn't taper off or stays high for 2 or more days, you need to see a doctor and take medicine. It's one reason now why pediatricians actually tell you to not give your children medicine to stop the fever before getting vaccinations. It's a natural response and can hinder the effectiveness as long as the fever isn't too high.
It depends on if you can suffer through it or not. Some ppl can deal with a 102 degree fever others like myself can't. I will literally cry, pain/discomfort whatever you wanna call it is not my strong suit! It's not like my body stops fighting the infection it's just not as hostile of an environment which don't forget messes with other cells too when you have a fever.
It’s your soldier fighting off infection inside
Don’t kill it by taking something to stop their work
Drink lots of water, get out flannel dip in vinegar and put on your forehead
Got chills for a whole day, god damn it was so annoying I didn't think I was sick or anything it was annoying as crap
I woke up at 3 am my mom was shivering I was so nervous what could happen to her she was shaking for abt 10mins God pls heal her😓
How is your mom now ??
@@kerizmarolle9710 hii my mom actually got better 2 months ago she was sick for about 1 month we didn't really know what it really was after we got her checked and it turns out it was abt her blood it wasn't really serious she just have to to take a rest and drink medicine for blood like iron i can't actually believe that it's been 2 months already shes actually really better thinking abt that time I was really nervous because it was just me and my 2 other siblings we were the ones who took care of her I don't know what could happen to her because watching her that way makes me cry but even tho things are tough I would always pray so happy she's better now thank you for asking i really appreciate that❤️.

Beautifully explained
Stop interrupting your guest RR
This doctor is great at explaining
Thanks Doctor. I feel the same right now... Thanks for sharing this valuable knowledge...
beautiful explanation doc
I’m literally just getting over the chills and I had to find some type of scientific to explain Wtf this is because I hate it!!! I’m feeling a little better now thankfully but those chills are the worst
I haven’t been able to get out of bed for the last 36 hours. I keep sleeping and then waking up. I got rigors a couple hours ago, I thought it was a seizure because I couldn’t stop shaking
Currently have Chills
Me too. Did your go away yet?

September 23rd 2023.. i feel like am gonna die..but understanding what happens inside ur body actually makes me feel better.
I have had really bad chills the past couple days. I have a covid test tomorrow. Excited to see if its because of covid or not.
Was it?
Me: Shivering.
Dad: Don't touch that hypothalamus.
I have a feever and my body was so hot and i have chills
How are you feeling now? Any update thanks.
@@myyoutubechannel3161 after 10 days it was good lasted for a day
@@sus6936 yeah glad your okay. I'm feeling it right now ehh. 😌 started Thursday and today is Sunday soo 4 days in.
@@myyoutubechannel3161 Are you good now bro? I'm also 4 days in and wondering how much longer the chills will last
Been cold a couple of days and Have no fever. I feel like I need 3 blankets the last two days. Sighs.
U good now?
Now I know why i always shivers whenever I feel vomit
Really nice explaination
taking tylenol helps to relieve those chills. Once you take them later you'll feel the effects kick in and your body starts to heat up like a campfire near you or something. It's a nice warm feeling.
That was very helpful, thank you.
I Love How you explained 😍Thank you doc
I’m currently shivering so much even tho I have 2 blankets and have a fever🥺
I am running a hot shower while trying to get warm in the bathroom right now.🥶
My body has needs to calm down. Legit even the air passing during walking or from opening doors made me shiver. Like I got it I'm looking for a blanket just please stop 😂
So why do people still feel cold and shake even after the internal temperature has risen?
I first had the chills when i where pregnant with my first child and i didn't know at the time
She kept interrupting him
I didn’t think so
Would of understood this better if she hasn’t of interrupted constantly
Lovely and simple explained 🙏
Another fine example of host thinking thry know more
Let the man speak damn it.
Oh he so didn’t answer the question. Why is it so bad that you feel like you’re dying,yet you explain why it’s normal. Sometimes I’ll slip into bed,and go into violent chills and cramping ,hoping I don’t have a heart attack.
Bro, the heart attack part, I relate😂
I can feel u bro I've been through this last night and i can tell you it really feels like you're gonna die
Should you be drinking cold or warm water ??? Is taking Paracetamol OK ??
Watching this while feeling too hot and shivers down my spine with a hot water bottle and my bed duvet 😅
Can the presenter stop interrupting the doctor.
If she knows everything then why call him on
The human body is so fascinating 😲

Vaccine Gang over here shivering off that 1st and 2nd dose
Same with you. I got second Pfizer vaccine. And currently at 3 I’m shaking. I don’t have a fever. My heater is on till the end. And I’m under a wool blanket. Can’t move to even go to the bathroom. I also have nausea. Extreme fatigue. Headache. And entire body ache. Damn my immune system is strong kicking in within the first 5 minutes and giving me side effects.
Y'all still alive? -not a joke
@@MrArtVein lol yeah I’m alive. I still don’t know the point of getting the vaccine. And see no difference. But I guess some more freedom to eat in doors or not wearing a mask in other places
@@tinapourshirazi2471 Im glad you actually said that, both things. The point of you getting the vaccine was to make you hopeful about the economy recovering and to gain your trust of the govt again. There was literally no reason to set vaccine numbers after the at-risk population received it. They needed a physical way to reset the economy and now they're telling you that you dont need a mask anymore. Knowing that you can still get it, pass it, have it and be asymptomatic and pass it etc. if anything you're more dangerous because no you wont even know if you're spreading it. Now you see the truth and I'm positive you're not the only one. Which means two things. There will be a strong aftershock in public trust and secondly the economy is going to crash as soon as these stimuluses stop. Vaccine rollout was a band-aid for an economy that already was broken and held together by PPP loans and stimulus checks.
@@tinapourshirazi2471 my 23 year old buddy wasn't so lucky. He took the vaccine because he moved back home due to the pandemic and his mom has lupus. Healthy young man in the national guard. Within 24 hrs he was dead, in his sleep. Sad and bizarre
