Hello and welcome to HCM,
Feeling light headed, vomiting and cold sweats are suggestive of migraine.
Migraine is a type of headache preceded and accompanied by aura.
The migraine is characterized by severe headache and as the headache is relieved there is phase of sluggishness.
The symptoms mentioned by you are quite similar to that of migraine.
I suggest you to consult a physician for clinical assessment, relevant investigations, diagnosis and thus management.
Thanks and take care
