Suggest Treatment For Sudden Dizziness And Palpitation

My wife was suffering from giddiness & feeling of blood rushing in her neck & arms. ECG & Echo tests show normal conditions as per cardialogists. They have asked her to undergo a minor procedure to correct her palpitation. At present they have prescribed her calaptin 40 Mg three times per day. In midnight she was feeling cold. Is it safe to take calaptin 40 Mg nowin midnight.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have sudden dizziness and palpitation. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query , but in your case the symptoms are probably due to cardiac problem like angina or heart failure .I would suggest you to consult cardiologist without any delay . Doctor may order ECG, TMT along with complete blood profile and checking vitals . Doctor may prescribe isosorbide nitrate , aspirin , betablockers , frusamide and sedatives . Doctor may also order angiography . For now stay calm , take proper rest and do not exert your body . As your doctor already ruled out cardiac problem your should refer you to gastroenterologist for acid reflux disease or neurologist for nerve dysfunction . For now eat light and non spicy specially at night , take antacid after every meal .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
