Are Hyperhidrosis And Memory Loss Symptoms Of Heart Disease?

Posted on Fri, 19 Aug 2016

Question: I have an issue where I've started overheating out of the blue. While I'm sitting at my desk working on my computer in an air conditioned room I can start poring sweat, I then have memory loss from overheating I feel this a lot of times start in my back / spine just to the right of my spinal column , then the feeling will rise up my nerves to my head , when this is happening. I've been able to get a blood pressure machine and my blood pressure will go from normal to 180/ 140 and my pulse will drop to 40-60 bpm. If it goes below 40 I will pass out and possibly end up having a seizure. Which I believe is a symptom of my overheating. I drink 3 plus liters a water a day generally trying to see if I was dehydrated but this hasn't resolved the issue.

You signs and symptoms are quite significant heart rate of 40 , BP of 180/140 and symptoms of sweating in an air conditioned room suggest that you need a complete checkup and work up of the problem.

Could something like Adrenalin Fatigue be the cause with it being hormonal? I've had relatives who have had Adrenalin Fatique.

Hellot tha ks for wiritng back yes that can well be a possibility just bradycardia is rare in that...for that you will have to ger adrenaline noradrenaline end products done in your urine to find out if they are raised in your body.
