What Causes Cold And Hot Sensation With Dizziness While On Cruise?
Question: I was on a cruise from New York to Bermuda for the last seven days we just returned yesterday and I haven't been feeling well since we got off the ship I am cold and hot and very dizzy almost like I can faint and I feel very weak I had way too much sun I fell asleep in the sun on one of the days and I don't know if that is the reason why I feel this way should I seek medical attention I was out earlier shopping and felt the need to come home for the way that I felt was horrible I have been in bed since 3:00 my time.
Brief Answer:
You need to get yourself thoroughly evaluated
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on Health Care Magic.
I have carefully gone through the description. While on cruise, the body faces difficulty in setting the benchmark between steadiness and movement and messes up with the balance centre which lies in our inner ear. Hence you do not feel well and feel dizzy. You need to take promethazine or cinnarizine or some other medicine that stabilises the inner ear. Seeing a doctor and getting yourself thoroughly evaluated can prove useful.
Prolonged exposure could have made you sweat and get a saltwater imbalance and could be contributory.
