Hot Flushes, Coldness In Arms, Elevated Blood Pressure, Increased Heartbeat. Normal ECG. What Could It Be?
I just experienced hot flush, sudden coldness in my arms and hands, elevated blood pressure 135/88 which is unusual for me, heart rate of 110/min, normal ECG though. I just started taking Macrobid for UTI 2 days ago and feels really nauseated since this morning. What could it be? side effect from antibiotic or the UTI? I am now asymptomatic from UTI.

Hi , Welcome to HCM ,
above symptoms with normal ECG may occur duet o underlying infection or due to drug side effect
above symptoms can be caused by menopause also ,
do not panic , stay relax ,
eat healthy food ,
stay away from any addiction ,
do more heart related test like 2D Echo ,and 24 hour holter study ,
avoid tea /coffee
take proper rest ,
consult your family physician and evaluate if symptoms persist
take care
