Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood the concerns.
Nausea, emesis, diaphoresis and tchycardia to the tune of 116 - 120 on walking 3.5 miles can be due to the following reasons:
Cardiac problems along with respiratory problems can cause such symptoms.
Hence I would advise you the following in such a situation:
Rush to ER as there is raised heart rate and you can not know the blood pressure. This is so because it is utmost important to come to a conclusion about the probable diagnosis.
This is done by a clinical evaluation by a Doctor, EKG, tests of blood, stool and urine.
Further investigations as per the clinical evaluation and thus get the proper plan of treatment. Till then have a PPI like Omeprazole, antacid and plenty of oral fluids. Rest in bed till you visit a Doctor.
It is better to see a Doctor asap or rush to ER.
