Have looked on NHS direct but cannot seem to find out my problem.

Went to bed on Friday night and felt absolutely fine. Then on Saturday morning when I got up I felt very different. I was very lightheaded and my body felt very weak. I was cold and shivery and quite dizzy when I walked. I'd lost all of my appetite which is strange for me as I generally feel hungry all of the time. I went out with mates, still feeling very dizzy although it seemed to get a little bit better when I was not focusing on it. Came home on Saturday evening and took a couple of paracetamol to see what it would do, lay down on the sofa and after about half an hour the cold shiver I was feeling turned into a really hot sweat - my hair felt like I'd just been on a really long jog somewhere. However it did make me feel a lot better. Woke up this morning and felt the same as I did the morning before although today I've been having a kind of 'impulse' cough that I can't control... it is worse when I breathe in. I took some ibuprofen this evening to see if it did a better job than the paracetamol but I can already feel the heat start travelling through my body. It starts at the top of my head and I can feel it working it's way down.

Am just in a bit of a pickle as I've never experienced these symptoms together before but don't want to waste the doctors time if it's nothing too serious.

Thanks
