Detailed Answer:
Hello!
Thank you for the additional information!
Coming to this point, I would recommend bringing him to the ER in order to exclude life threatening cardiac arrhythmia or myocardial ischemia ( which can be triggered by meth).
In is important performing a careful physical exam, coupled with some tests:
- resting ECG and cardiac enzymes
- chest x-ray study
- complete blood count
- blood electrolytes
- fasting glucose
- kidney and liver function tests.
He may need a more urgent and professional treatment, coupled with a close monitoring of his blood pressure and heart rhythm under medical supervision.
Let me know about everything!
