do you mean rigor mortis? As for riego. I could not find that word either so maybe it is a local word that is used medically or it is just a local word used by people where you are based. Are you in Argentina by any chance?
We have local words here that we use that aren't found anywhere else in the world. Many phrases such as "Pithering about" (meaning "messing around"/"wasting time").... "Ow bist?" (meaning "how are you"?) and "Sweating Cobs" ("sweating profusely")
So this could be your local area word for the condition you described.
From the symptoms you describe and his reaciton afterwards to not remembering it sounds like he had a high fever and was delirious with the temperature. This would explain his lack of memory of the time he was ill and in a fever. Brief loss of memory is not uncommon after drinking alcohol, or after a high Fever, an operation, an epileptic fit (see Epilepsy), or a diabetic coma (see Diabetes). Depression and Anxiety can also cause temporary memory loss. In these circumstances, inability to remember is not something to worry about.
Running a temperature above normal range of 36-37°C (96.8-98.6°F) is usually a sign that the body is fighting some kind of infection. Particularly serious are Pneumonia (temperature above 40°C [104°F], breathlessness, coughing, rust-coloured sputum), Meningitis (fever, headache, nausea, vomiting, stiff neck, light hurts eyes), and Puerperal fever (marked fever shortly after childbirth); all three require prompt medical attention.
Fever can also accompany such ailments as acute Pyelonephritis (rapid onset of high fever, pain in small of bask), Tuberculosis (slight fever, weight loss, fatigue, dry cough, shortness of breath, chest pain), Brucellosis (flu-like symptoms after drinking unpasteurised milk), and of course various tropical diseases.
ther conditions which cause temperature to rise are acute Bronchitis (wheezing, coughing, yellow-green phlegm), Influenza (headache, general aches and chills, runny nose), Gastroenteritis (headache, diarrhoea, vomiting), pharyngitis and Tonsilitis (sore throat, difficulty swallowing), Cystitis (painful urination, frequent urge to urinate), Measles (rash, runny nose, cough, red eyes), Rubella (red rash, pea-like bumps on back of head), Chicken pox (rash followed by itchy blisters), and Pelvic infection (lower abdominal pain, foul-smelling vaginal discharge).
Prolonged exposure to sun, especially if humidity is high, can cause Heatstroke, sending body temperature rocketing to 40°C (104°F) or more; person looks flushed, has hot, dry shin and a fast, thudding pulse, and may lose consciousness.

There is no medical answer for the word rigo, however, if you mean Rigor, then it is a medical term for shivering or rigidity. Rigor mortis is the stiffness that ensues in a corpse soon after death, owing to chemical changes in muscle tissue.
Hope this helps

Rigor mortis is one of the recognizable signs of death that is caused by a chemical change in the muscles after death, causing the limbs of the corpse to become stiff and difficult to move or manipulate. Assuming mild temperatures, rigor usually sets in about 3-4 hours after clinical death with full rigor being in effect at about 12 hours, and eventually subsiding to relaxation at about 36 hours. Times for the onset of rigor mortis can vary from a few minutes to several hours depending on the ambient temperature. Factors influencing rigor mortis include the age and condition of the body, as well as the mode of death and the surroundings. For example, rigor mortis will tend to set in faster in those who were active immediately prior to death.

If you mean rigor. It is a sense of chilliness with contraction of the skin, a preliminary symptom of many diseases. It can also mean a failure to react under stimulus, under unfavourable conditions, or a rigid state caused by sudden shock like when an animal plays dead.
Rigor mortis is stiffness after death. You are definitely NOT suffering from this, andI hope you will be free of it for many years to come.

Nonito Donaire didn't avoid Vic Darchinyan when he was on his tear, then he shouldn't be scared of Guellermo Rigoneaux either. The fight with Rigondeaux and Donaire should be easy to put together since they both fight under Top Rank if they both wanted to fight each other ,but Donaire rather fight Abner Mares since Mares has a bigger fanbase and a bigger following than Rigodeaux ,therefore bigger rewards ,while Rigondeaux is more of a high risk low reward figh for Donaire.

Many common natural remedies are claimed to have blood sugar lowering properties that make them useful for people with or at high risk of diabetes. Learn here https://tr.im/MHtYq
A number of clinical studies have been carried out in recent years that show potential links between herbal therapies and improved blood glucose control, which has led to an increase in people with diabetes using these more 'natural' ingredients to help manage their condition.

Do you mean the chills and shivering that sometimes accompanies a fever? This shivering is the muscles shaking or quivering...
Could you mean a febrile seizure, which is a true seizure caused by the rapidly rising temperature?
