Im not sure, but I have had a high fever before. And, everytime I'd know it will go down I'd know because i got the chills. I'm not sure but i know its natural when you have a fever of that temperature. If you're temperature goes up you'll most likely get hot and sweaty and the chills will go away.

your body was getting use to being so warm..it's natural. Just bundle up!

It helps your body cool down. Its perfectly natural. But you should still stay in blankets

It could be that your body temperature is adjusting to your illness....for instance, your body overheats to attempt to kill the virus...the chills could be compensation and the natural reaction your body has to itself overheating. :)

Chills may occur at the beginning of an infection and are usually associated with a fever. Chills are caused by rapid muscle contraction and relaxation, and are the body's way of generating heat when it feels that it is cold. Chills often predict the coming of a fever, or an increase in the body's core temperature. Hope this helped.
