Guest guest Posted February 28, 2006 Report Posted February 28, 2006 I have a converse question: What would cause a sensatio of low-grade fevers in the morning? I looked up pathomechanisms for fevers of unknown origin in one book, and morning fevers weren't even covered. This patient often wakes between 4 and 5 am feeling too warm, and will often feel feverish when she starts to move around after 7 or 8 am. She also sometimes gets late afternoon or evening, more typical yin xu heat effusion in the upper body, but the morning heat symptoms are full-body. In recent weeks, her feet are also often cold, especially while sleeping. Ideas, anyone?
