I think the night shivers are a slight case of Autonomic Disraflexia(sp?) When I get it, once I get moved a bit it goes away. Most of my AD is bladder related, so maybe the SP cath is in a bad position and irritating my bladder. One time I woke up so cold and shivering so bad, I was sure I had a bad UTI. As soon as I got up I went to the ER. My arm was shivering so bad I was jerking as I was driving my chair. My temp was at 94 degrees. The ER line was very long so I went outside to sit in the sun. By the time they called me, I was warming up (it was over 105 out side). AD slows things down and can lower your temp as it raises you blood pressure. It is a dangerous thing.
