Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Shivers,pain on left side,low temperature ( due to shivers ),tiredness, headache.
Within 10-12 hours.
There are so many reasons for this type of disorders.
Urinary tract infection,
food poisoning ( sometimes without diarrhea and patient complaints of shivers)
Now the most important cause is pain on the left side.
Might be a heart pain.
So history is very ambiguous and you have not mentioned an important thing , age , male or female.
Time passed after lunch .
Overeating may be one cause.
So consult a doctor and get in his advice.
Good luck.
Dr. HET
