Brief Answer:
Suggestive of weakness.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Feeling of hot and chills at the same time is an indication of weakness. By chills the body is trying to conserve the energy loss and she was having cold sweats. This can sometimes happen due to a hormonal change in the body. She needs to increase her warm fluids intake and multivitamin supplements.
Adenosarcoma is likely to be a malignant tumor. The differentiation of benign or malignant can only be done after the surgery and histopathological examination.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
