Question: I have weakness in down both arms, not painful just weak. My feet are sweaty, I feel somewhat nausea, and chest pains toward the neck and upper chest. Should I schedule an appointment or just wait until its subsides.

Brief Answer:
Cardiac pathology can not be ruled out.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome to health care magic. I am Dr. Ganesh.

1.The symptoms mentioned by you are more towards cardiac pathology with vascular insufficiency.

2.I would recommend to get an appointment and vitals checked ( BP,PULSE) ECG and a chest x-ray which will give an over view of any underlying pathology.

3.It can be a general weakness - but can not be taken it easily.

4.As a remedy take potassium supplement, more of healthy food like fruits, salads, more of water. Good luck.


Hope i have answered your query,
any thing to ask? do not hesitate to ask.
