Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Yesterday, I had 3 episodes that all left me weak and unable to stand. It started as a hot flash and almost instantly turned into a down pour of sweat. I became nauseated and before i could excuse myself my mouth began to water and i was dry heaving. My stomach would settle down and the hot flash would begin to go away. My body temperature felt normal again but i was covered in sweat from my forehead to my chest. After another minute of feeling off balance, i seemingly would feel like nothing ever happened. This entire process lasted about 5 minutes, but felt like forever. They were about 25~30 minutes apart and then stopped after the third one.
Any ideas???

General & Family Physician, Dr. Amarnath's Response
Welcome to hcm, Nothing to worry these are symptoms of vertigo. You take some cinnarizine tablets everything will be fine. Possitional imbalance associated with nausea are symptoms of vertigo. If it is not recurring I think nothing to worry and if it recurrs Have some investigation like Blood sugar fasting and post prandial Hope this explains With regards Dr.Amarnath
