2. Chills and shivering
3. Sweating, especially after chills subside
4. Headache

6. Muscle aches and joint pain
7. Fatigue and weakness
8. Loss of appetite
9. Abdominal pain
10. Rapid breathing and heart rate

4. Jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes)
5. Dark or cola-colored urine (hemoglobinuria)
