I know for a fact that in order for the human body to fall asleep, the body temperature has to fall (slightly, I think)! My question is then how come do we feel sleepy when you have a fever and your body temperature is above normal? How can the body fall asleep in this condition? And also, how can cooling down significantly (like splashing your face with cold water, taking a cold shower, or standing outside in the middle of the night) make you feel awake and repel sleep?
