What Causes Excessive Sweating, Dizziness And Severe Lower Abdominal Pain After Eating?

Posted on Mon, 12 Oct 2015

Question: my husband began sweating profusely, felt light headed and developed severe lower abdominal pain after eating dinner at a friends home. He has an iron stomach, so this is very un-nerving. He used the bathroom, but still is sweating and feeling light headed.

Brief Answer:
Its possible heart attack

Detailed Answer:
This is sounding absolutely like a heart attack.
People need not always have chest pain.
Get to a ER immediately to rule out heart attack.
I am assuming there are no associated prior comorbidities.
Bets of luck, Dr Mittal
