Should I Be Concerned About Dizziness, Visual Disturbance, Cold Sweat And Shortness Of Breath?
started this morning. food, only 2 teaspoons made me dizzy, visual disturbance, cold sweat all over body, shortness of breath. Also have a swollen gland under left jaw. Happened 3 times today. to be concerned or not? I am a 76 year old female and overweight.
Well, at the very least you don't sound comfortable and so for that reason I think getting an appointment with a Dr. sooner than later maybe to your advantage. I doubt very much it had anything to do with 2 teaspoons of food you had. Sounds like you have contracted some sort of upper respiratory or pharyngeal infection. but also, some of your symptoms could potentially be cardiac in origin and therefore, if you have any history of cardiac disease at all and if the symptoms came on suddenly and are new to you then, I would suggest you visit a doctor sooner rather than later and perhaps even an emergency room. Best of luck and hope you feel back to yourself soon.
