Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Could Nausea, Cold Sweats With Nausea Mean Heart Related Problem?
As of late, my husband (42yrs) has had several episodes of nausea, cold sweats and stomach pain in the morning when he first gets up. He has had issues with acidy foods and beverage on an empty stomach but now the symptoms are coming on without having anything in his stomach at all. He had a bout of tick fever 18 mos ago, is under more stress than usual. I am wondering if thhis is ulcer or heart realted or something entirely different. Can you give me some suggestions? I am planning a physical with our dr. Thank you.
I passed carefully through your question and would explain that his symptoms are not typical of any cardiac disorders.
Coming to this point, I would recommend consulting with his attending physician and performing some tests to investigate for the possible causes:
- a resting ECG and a cardiac ultrasound - a chest X ray study and pulmonary function tests - complete blood count, PCR, ESR for inflammation - an ambulatory 24-48 hours ECG monitoring to investigate for cardiac arrhythmia - kidney and liver function tests.
A fibrogastroscopy may be needed.
You should discuss with his doctor on the above tests.
Kind regards,
Dr. Iliri
