Suggest Treatment For Profuse Sweating
Good afternoon. I have a male friend who was diagnosed with high liver enzymes after blood work taken. Has been sweating profusely, had stomach pains and was admitted to hospital. They discharged him because the Doctor figured it was a virus. Is now on meds. but still sweating. What can my friend do to help elevate this problem and help in in the healing process. Thank you for your time.

Thank you for your query.
It seems as a panic attack after the blood was drawn. presentation is profuse sweating, palpitation, rapid heart rate. It happens to certain patients when blood is drawn out.
Give him oral hydrated solution OR lemon water once or twice. That is it.
NOTHING to WORRY.
convince him that there is NOTHING wrong and he is all good. He would be normal soon.
besides, what medication is he taking and why?
hope he gets well soon

Dr Tayyab Malik
