Having hot flashes in foot, no pain, has hypoglycemia. Family history of diabetes and blood clot disorders.
My husband is 29 years old and over the past 2-3 weeks has began to have random hot flashes in his left foot . They happen at any time of day or night and don t seem to be brought on by any particular movement. Diabetes and blood clot disorders run in his family. There isn t any pain associated with the hot flashes. We believe he has hypoglycemia because when he doesnt eat for more than 4-6 hours he becomes irritable and tired, but he has never been formally tested. Should he see our doctor for the hot flashes?
