What Causes Increase In Appetite Along With Excessive Sweating?
All of sudden very hungry start sweating very much to the extent hair is wet and weakness and after I eat a meal I am just still very weak and tired. I have had a heart attack over a year ago and 5 stents over past year. Could this be related to heart?

Hello....i understand your concern.
Sudden hunger and sweating could be a symptom of hypoglycaemia or low blood sugar. It would be helpful if you could tell me whether you are also a diabetic and on anti diabetic drugs.
Please get your fasting and 2hr post meal blood sugar tested.
Considering your cardiac history i would advise you to get an ekg and a 2D echocardiogram in consultation with your cardiologist.
