What is up?
Brief Answer:
many causes
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I am sorry you are having this problem. If it is something that has just started you may be coming down with a viral infection of some sort. That can cause chills and may even cause a lower than normal temperature. If you have symptoms like cough, runny nose, diarrhea or pain on urination then see a doctor. If you are not getting an infection then it may be something metabolic like thyroid disorder. If this does not resolve in a few days or if it has been going on for a long time then you need to see a doctor in person for an exam and blood tests.
I hope you are feeling better very soon,
Dr. Robinson

Brief Answer:
could be some infection
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
It is common for sugars to go up some when you have an infection. Diabetics may not always have symptoms with infections. It is really important for you to see your doctor as soon as possible to be evaluated for any possible infection that may be causing the chills and elevated glucose.
