Is It Normal To Shiver And Feel Cold After Angiogram?

My partner had an angiogram yesterday and this eving she has been shivering and her face is white and she feels cold and has a temperature of 37.6 even though she's taken paracetamol. The angiogram was normal. Is it normal to have shivering and slight fever start 24 hours afterwards?

Ya you may have some feverish feeling with shivering post angiogram , not always but frequent as for an angiography a dye is used, your partner had delayed reaction to the dye.
Take plenty of liquids and the dye will be flushed out of the system through urine in 24 hours. You need not worry for the same and it's just mild reaction to the iodinated dye. .
Wishing you best of health. Regards Dr Priyank Mody
